I absolutely refuse to go anywhere remotely close to downtown after 8pm. Going downtown when all the drunks come out is literally taking your life into your hands. Every street corner reeks of alcohol, broken glass everywhere, noise levels are unbearable, and college aged bar hoppers acting like manners and decorum are unnecessary just because they flood the downtown streets. How can anyone be proud of downtown Wilmington being this way? Who cares how much money it brings in and how many local businesses thrive off the bar patrons. Do we really want the image of our downtown at night being a rowdy, uncontrollable mass of drunk and over-sexed college students who should be studying or working instead if making fools of themselves in public?
I agree, downtown is a cesspool at night
