Stevie in AC

Lee · #1 08-12-2010, 09:18 AM

To those going to see Stevie in AC, have a good time, but please be careful. I'm not trying to be a Debbie Downer here, but there have been five robberies on The Boardwalk recently. I just watched the Philly news this a.m., & two men from Ohio were robbed on The Boardwalk, guns pointed right in their face!

My husband & I were just in AC on Saturday to see Heart, & he noted that he did not see any police on The Boardwalk. (We used to see quite a few on trips there before.) Come to find out this a.m. that due to budget cuts, they are laying off some police & they only have four there @ a time for the whole boardwalk!

So again, have a good time, but please be careful.

And I expect a full report after the show since I can't go

Yeah, sadly AC isn't a very nice area. I can't believe they only have four cops for the entire boardwalk. Be safe everybody!

I'll be dressed up in Stevie garb galore. Nobody's gonna ef with me. And if they try, I'll knock them over the head with my tambo.

I have to agree,last year the day after the Fleetwood Mac show. As I was walking down the boardwalk when this little wise ass yelled out at me and said your head looks like a
d%$k .I just kept on walking as this was said because I did not want to have a problem with his bigger friend sitting next to him on the bench.It's to bad about these kid minds are getting wasted and have no respect for others.

Thanks for the advice. I am going and sticking close to the casino. NO ONE is gonna mess up this Stevie Experience... NO ONE !

So all those bad guys have now been officially warned by a member of the "Don't F#@k with Stevie Fans" group.

I am trying to take as many photos and videos as I can to share with everyone.

I was there this past week. Not too many cops around but a lot more security in the casinos (IMO) than I've ever seen before.

A few more tips: Keep money hidden (pocketbooks should be, again--IMO--for makeup and "show"), stay sober if you're going to walk around a lot and don't engage if someone tries to taunt you. Move quickly into a casino, store or restaurant and just pretend you haven't seen or heard the other person/persons.

Plus, a friend of mine told me this a while ago and it's obvious, but I wasn't doing it. IF you are walking from one of the "inner" blocks to the boardwalk--go through the back of the casino and walk through the casino to the boardwalk. I used to walk past parking lots, etc. and there's not too much security in doing that.

Also, I'm told that if you feel uncomfortable going back to your room--for whatever reason--you can ask hotel security to accompany you.

Regina, this is pretty good advise!

Haven't been on here in a while

So excited Stevie's doing this "This is Not a Tour Tour" lol...going to see her Atlantic City! Can't wait! My first time seeing Stevie solo and not part of The Mac (Saw them 3 times last year-Philadelphia, Atlantic City, Baltimore). Don't know if I want to wear my "Enchanted" or "Leather & Lace" shirt lol
