I was on the square for other activities from about 10:00 in the morning. I asked someone about the personal chairs being over on the deck area. I was told it was for the Rocky concert. Personal chairs no problem and TV chairs were not even moved until after 2:15. Our group was off the stage at about 2 to give Rocky time to set up and TV chairs were not moved in on trailers yet.

I killed some time and went to Red Sauce for supper. When I got back to the square it was 4:35 and I saw about 6 or 8 chairs still stacked up near the fountain. I went to get one but when I got there only 2 were left and I let the lady take both of them. I was able to score one a few minutes later but in my looking I saw 4 chairs that were chained and locked up on the deck area that is on the Urban Flats side of the square. Now that takes nerve.

Next I moved over to an open spot over by the clock and watched the entire episode unfold in front of me and it was interesting to say the least. I think it was about 7:00 when the people showed that roped off the chairs only to find them occupied. There was a blond that was involved and she was really pi$$ big time. She was standing right next to me talking on her cell about the incident. I was waiting to see a good old bar fight break out but it never did thank goodness.
