Springfest adverts irks Kerian

Grand Forks City Council member Dorette Kerian said she was "disheartened" by the bar promotions preceding Saturday's Springfest, which otherwise went off pretty well by her reckoning.

The bars were telling students to come early and drink and get free bus rides to University Park for the celebration.

I have to admit, I was sort of taken aback when I saw one of these ads while walking downtown. But then haven't bars offered bus rides to UND football games and tailgating parties? That's pretty early to be drinking, too. Anybody remember?

Lighten up. Drinking is drinking no matter what time of the day. This is a special event just like football games that roll around 4-5 times a year.
