    It won't be THE Freaknik. Just a cast off of it. A wannabe, if you will. Nothing will compare to real Freakniks and everyone knows the city won't allow it to be like it used to be. Later, QD.

    Very true. Only way to do it right would be start back to the beginning - the Grant Park BBQ. Yes, I do go back like that.

    Omg, they still have freakniks? I remember the freakniks when I was a kid, and my sister used to take me up there with them to give my mom a break. Omg, fights, shootings, naked females....it was like we were in the hoods of LA. I saw enough of it while I was 10ish, I have no need to attend.

    Seems that I have a pair of haters that follow me everywhere I go. THANKS for the motivation!!!

    It won't be like it use to be though it will still be great.

    3 parties, 1 Night!

    We'll keep you posted.

    PS: There where no murders reported in association to FreakNik. Traffic was the reason the city rejected the park permits.

    Prove it. Very simple phrase and there is noo dragon, just a bunch of smoke and mirrors. I know why it was shut down and it was due to traffic. This guy just lies about things he doesn't know.

    "Separate and apart from Spring Break, blacks leave college and descend either on Atlanta, the Gulf Coast, or a Florida beach area and go wild, sorta like they were in Africa before they were slaves. An escape from classes, it is almost a riot with riot police on patrol. It is hard to say what freaknik activities might be expected but always there is public loud music, cruising, breeding in public, drunkeness and brawls. Some refer to it as Black Spring Break."

    or

    "A national gathering of black college students in Midtown Atlanta, GA in the third weekend of April celebrating black unity.(often became a rapefest and drug-smuggling nightmare)Last held in 1999."


    "In 1995, Greenbriar Mall was looted. After 1994, city leaders took measures to curtail Freaknik's accessibility and hence its popularity. Because of those plans, Freaknik in its later years moved to Memorial Drive in Dekalb County to take part in heavy late night club activity during that time.

    At its peak in the mid-nineties, it drew upwards of 250,000 revelers to Atlanta. The primary complaint of Freaknik was that it brought extra criminal activity upon the city of Atlanta. It was last held in 1999. The Reverie of Freaknik passed on to Daytona Beach, Florida until the city officials also grew tired of the antics of the attendees and they took steps to kill Freaknik once and for all. A major catalyst for the death of Freaknik was the brutal rape of a college female in the city center."


    Yeah it was definitely JUST the traffic

    As a white man I always thought freaknik was was most backwards way of blacks expressing themselves this side of the MLK assassination. Way to breed stereotypes! Its just trashy looking back at it, blacks wanting equal rights and acceptance but then expecting to be able to run amock in downtown, having sex in public, running around naked pissing and ****ting everywhere.

    So basically you get a bunch of black, I'm assuming well-educated, college students that revert back to some primal state and go ape**** Why not simply party and have a good clean time? Who needs riots and looting, that just looks bad on the entire race.

    Ever wonder if it wasnt just the traffic and violence that stopped it? Perhaps some intelligent black politicians agreeing that the practice needed to be stopped in order for the south to modernize?

    reading through reviews, the black community finally had to put an end to it. even the most mundane of animals knows not to **** where you sleep and eat. Freaknik was an excuse to come have a good time, get wasted and disrespect someone else's living space. But we want to bring it back.

    It moved to Daytona, and they got rid of it too...

    Don't take this personally but GTFO!! If you want to post and promote some event then do it, but if you want to start **** and talk about stuff that you are very misinformed about then just turn off your computer and kill yourself. No one wants Freaknik back anyway so why even bother.

    first off, you're a racist.

    seconly, did I say it was JUST the traffic? I said that it was due TO traffic.

    Third, your last quotables, like the rest, are derived from unknown sources and personal opinion sites. IE The last one is from Wikipedia and it CLEARLY states at the top of the page {Caution} NO CITE RESOURCE!

    ----

    How about you read the press release you ignorant, dumbass Nazi!
    -----------


    The Death Of Freaknik And The Rise Of Black Spring Break Events

    Black Spring Break Events evolve from the unorganized Freaknik traffic gridlock Atlanta. during the 90s. Black Spring Break Events bring 100,000 participants to Daytona Beach, Florida, Galveston, Texas and Miami, Florida.

    (PRWEB) April 6, 2005 -- For many years, especially during the late 80's and early 90's, the Freaknik In Atlanta, Georgia brought in over 250,000 participants.

    It created enormous traffic gridlock and was considered the hot zone for hundreds of thousands of black college students who traveled from all across the country every April to Atlanta, Georgia.

    For many of those years, it lived up to its name. It was Freak-Nik! There were the wild parties on the street, the dancing, the traffic jams and of the kinds of things you might have witnessed in a Girls Gone Wild type video if they had existed back then.

    In fact so many came in 1992, Atlanta was brought to a standstill. It became an event that was heard about through out the world. It also received extra attention because it was also the headquarters of a famous 24 hour cable news station.

    In fact this month marks the 5th Anniversary of the death of Freaknik. In 2000 the event died while other spring break events took its place and have since become very popular in their own right.

    Black College Reunion in Daytona Beach, Florida, April 15-17, 2005, The Kappa Beach Party in Galveston Texas( April 15 -17, 2005) and newest spring break event The Miami Springfest hosted by P.Diddy in Miami, Florida(April 29- May 2, 2005) are all scheduled to take place this month. And each will bring in over 100,000 college students per event.

    Terrance Smith, CEO of http://www.blackbeachweek.com a website and newsletter which focuses on African American Spring Break events, explains that spring break events such as those named remain extremely popular because they a fill a cultural void that many of the traditional spring break events leave out.

    Smith also goes on to explain that "unlike the Freaknik event in Atlanta, spring break events of today offer a variety of things to do such as concerts, car shows, job searches and career development recruitment. They are also being backed by sponsors which was unheard of in the past”. Smith predicts that spring break events will continue to grow and expand in different cities in future years.

    Looks can deceiving, homeless. Very deceiving.

    There was one murder just on the outskirts of downtown near a park around Auburn Ave/Edgewood neighborhood during Freaknik. I don't remember where the other one took place but it was an aftermath of a rape. As was previously stated, the crime that came with Freaknik was the main reason for the shut down. Traffic played a roll, yes, but it wasn't the reason for shutting it down. Later, QD.

    Take this personally. I never invited you to this thread

    PLEASE NOTE THAT AT ANYTIME, BOTH OF YOU CAN GO TO OTHER THREADS

    This is for the people that are coming to the event when it's here!
    I think that it is fair to say that you would also benefit from reading the PR because apparently. I'm the ONLY person that knows exactly what I am talking about.


    We are also doing the same in Miami as well:boobies: .

    Prove IT!

    I've proven beyond a reasonable doubt (as they do in court) my statements with source references. Seems that the same can not be said for you though let me help you.

    What's the name of the "victims"?
    Where (county) did it happen?
    How can YOU prove it was related to Freaknik?
