Mooning of the Amtrak – Let Them Party!

Sometimes, adults do things that might seem more suited for college kids.

The Mooning of the Amtrak is one of those things.

It was born of a bet – and it's a sure bet that a bar was involved – and has now turned into an annual event. Each year, a few hundred people roll off the 5 freeway in south Orange County, CA, to a dive bar called the Mug's Away Saloon in Laguna Niguel, and moon the passing Amtrack trains.

It's the Mooning of the Amtrak, and it's as harmless as an ocean breeze, as fun as a beach party. Goofy, yes. Dangerous, no. The 2010 event is Saturday, July 10. For a review of the event, go to PubClub.com:


Of course, with nothing better to do, the Laguna Nigel City Council considers it a treat to the lifestyle and well-being of their citizens – never mind that the Mug's Away is in a business area, located in small industrial-type strip mall with no residences around for miles – and want to shut it down.

Police are warning people to STAY AWAY!!!

What, they have nothing better to do than try and ruin people's Saturday afternoon? There are no problems at this event, it's just good clean fun.

Okay, if any person has had "their first beer," take care 'of em. But for the 99% of law-abiding, fun-loving people, LET THEM PARTY!!!
