Police issued tickets for indecent exposure at Boulder's 10th Annual Naked Pumpkin Run because the huge crowd threatened to "get out of hand". Hundreds of costumed revelers started chanting “Let them go!” and telling officers to “find real criminals.”
Sorry, but I fail to see how a police crackdown on nude runners is an effective means to quiet a rowdy crowd. In this case it apparently just riled them up even more, and could have resulted in someone being hurt, or worse. Better to set up a police presence and let the runners have their fun. After all, it's not really indecent exposure if nobody is offended, is it? All the tickets that were issued should be challenged.

It reminds me of when the high school principal would kick kids out the dance for lewd dancing, then announcing it to the other dancers. Just a bit of encouragement, I guess.
A couple of years ago I attended a Geek Prom event with some friends. It had traditionally taken place in Duluth (northern MN), but this was the first year it was held at in St. Paul. In keeping with tradition, late in the evening several guys streaked through the party. This was a private venue, adults only, and the streaking was anticipated by people who had attended the event in the past. Nobody was upset by it. But lucky for us, the cops were there with pepper spray. Yes, pepper spray. One of my friends (who wasn't one of the streakers, but just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, got a dose of the pepper spray in her eyes. Needless to say, the event moved back to Duluth the following year.
