Northern Lights Tonight Overrun by Tourists Blaring Music and Setting Off Fireworks — Can't We Just Enjoy Nature Without Turning It Into a Nightclub?
Local resident John H. from Maple Drive says he’s had enough of the “non-stop circus” that descended on our quiet neighborhood last night. “I step outside to see the northern lights tonight, and instead I’m blasted by car stereos and drunk people yelling,” he wrote on the community page. “Common sense says if you’re trying to watch a natural wonder, you don’t bring a boom box and a dozen glow sticks. But I guess that’s too much to ask for these days.” The display was meant to be a rare treat, but it seems some folks can’t tell the difference between an aurora and a tailgate party. Maybe next time, leave the party at home and just look up — it’s not rocket science.
