[Namron] H&8th Night Market

[Thunder]

I am working down the street from there right now and I went on my lunch break on Friday and spent an hour. It was fun. Not sure about a demo. There are a lot of drunks, political petitions, loud bands, and some weird guy on the corner smoking "sandwiches" (how I met your mother reference) and playing guitar. I feel it is a fun time to be had as a group but we would get lost on the chaos as another "act" if we went as a demo.

The city blocks off Hudson street, between 6th and 10th street. Started a couple of years ago at Hudson & 8th street, hence the name. Started with two vendors and about 100 people. This year in April was 15,000 people. Last night was almost 50 food trucks and it was assessed that attendance has doubled.

>> As the evening went on and the crowds grew, it got to the point that I felt we were continuously walking sideways to get through the mobs. Not something to do in full garb, in my opinion.
