That is the MacArthur bridge, not the McGregor.
How did you get into the Zoo? Did you pose as homeless kangaroos?
sorry,got to say it but is it really wise to post names and dates of trespassing?Or is it open to the public at this time?
I agree, thats what I was getting at with my posing as homeless kangaroos statement.Quote:

Outing someone on this forum [[without their expressed permission) is a no-no... but once they've outed themselves on their blog... the point becomes moot [[although one would question their wisdom in doing so!). :eek:
I think it is best not to discuss these sorts of things. I for one would never tress pass, but I understand the lure of doing so. What would be really crazy is if someone came on here and said "look what I did" and posted videos of them smashing stuff or painting crazy things like freeway signs with "Eat Cheetos"
I would agree... especially if you give out your name.... you never know who will come a knockin' at your door... :[[Quote:

Sounds like the doors were open to the zoo anyways, are there any no trespassing signs in the first place?
This site used to be so much fun, sheeesh.
Yeah I know Django... so much fun is now gone from urban explorers... with the state taking over Belle Isle... no more visits to the closed zoo... no more skinny dipping in the lagoon, or drinking 40's late at night... nor that worry free doob at 1AM...
The MCS is now fenced off... the Roosevelt Warehouse is 1 popsicle man short of a full house, the GAR is sealed and being rehabbed... the Broderick is leased and unaccessible, the Whitney is being rehabbed... so no more throwing chairs from the upper floors into the skylight... the number of tagging locations, while not diminished... is now relegated to lesser buildings...
Sigh... borderline illegal stuff just isn't what it used to be....:eek:
