The event was held at the UCF Arena. - Within a 3 block area there at least 3 parking garages as well as a parking lot that can take large numbers of cars. What the article does not tell you is the "fake event" parking at the Fraternity's lot was a solid 1/4 mile or more walk to the arena and you are parking well away from the event when there was adequate parking in the area.

Offended UCF Alumni.

So?

If there was nothing to hide, the fraternity should have responded. This many people with the same story indicates to me that something is fishy. I don’t care why they parked at a distance.

It sounds like a prank to me. I have to admit, if it happened at an Al Gore speech, I’d think it was pretty funny.

I bet most of these people don’t know that, saw the signs and parked there thinking it was the right place.

They were set up by the frat house, period.

Quite interesting that you signed up today just to defend this.

Offended UCF Alumni.

 
What exactly are you offended at? How did the possibly illegal towing of 53 cars offend you?
 
Or are you simply offended at conservatives invading your campus to hear Glenn Beck?
 
Sniff.

So what do you think actually happened here?

Did these 53 separate carloads of event attendees each just randomly decide to park in the inconvenient and unlawful parking lot for no apparent reason?

wow. did you and the Frat boys get a good laugh.

I wonder if any of the attendees have photos of the signs?

Would make a good case for a Lawsuit.

What jerkoff Frat brat came up with this juvenile stunt?

I can’t tell if you’re offended that people are blaming Kappa Sigma or you’re offended that the fraternity did this.

If your offended that folks are blaming Kappa Sigma then your argument holds no water because I can guarantee you that nobody that went to see Glen Beck knows what parking is available at UCF and where that parking is in relation to the event itself.

Frankly, UCF has too little parking for too many people so it’s not surprising that people park in the first ‘Event Parking’ area they see that is available.

What UCF needs to do to solve its parking problems is to charge students a faculty a $2,000.00 a year “carbon” fee to have the privilege to park on campus. The money raised can be used to fund an expanded bus service and off-campus parking.

It’s about time these college liberals start putting their money where their mouth is.

Offended? The folks that had their cars towed should be offended. It doesn’t matter where other parking was available, if someone put a sign out that said “Park Here” and then had the cars towed, they should be held accountable. Also, I sincerely hope that you didn’t register on FR just to defend this crap and if you get offended that easily you won’t last long on here anyway.

Man oh man, just how long does a Glen Beck event take? The tow truck guy says it took him EIGHT hours to tow all those vehicles.

A full police investigation should be held.
UCF should suspend them until the investigation is finished.
The national chapter should suspend the fraternity at once.
Too many problems.

People the same age are remaking the Middle East with guns, diplomacy and their lives. These goofballs really look bad and they have disgraced the national organization.

The tow truck company must have a record of who called him and authorized the towing. It sounds like he was taken in by a fraud also. If he cooperates with authorites he should be off the hook, if he withholds the info then he is complicit in the fraud.

It shouldn’t be to hard for some reporter to determine who made the tow call. If you car got towed, I believe you are entitled to know who demanded the tow.

For Tea partiers going to the Searchlight meet in the barren Nevada desert lands, there were lib shysters along the way with signs misdirecting traffic off on side roads. (And a side road in those barren wastelands - particularly with a camper trailor - can take you a long way out of your way.

It looks like these tactics are part of a new game plan. Every one needs to be documented. (Were the tables turned, there would already be arrests and 24/7 MSM outrage.)
