Nah, it was nothing like Freaknik but it was the event of the year for mingling to get phone numbers. The Adams Point Society( old white folks that lived in the area) had been working to get rid of it for years because it attracted so many black folks.Thinking back, many of the complains were similar to 1st Friday complaints but 1st Friday is way more white. There was rarely violence but somebody got shot one year and they ran with shutting it down. With the new demographics of Oakland I can see it being brought back but not hardly like it was.
exactly
the difference between that at 1st friday is white people.
