Santa Barbara for Halloween?

Anyone going up to SB for Halloween? Parties are supposed to be sick...

I need recommendations on places to stay close to the UCSB campus. So post up!

Assuming something?

Plus the whole street is just one huge party or so I've heard.

i didn't assume, but if u want.. u're asking acurazine peeps where to stay. if u knew someone u would ask them and/or stay with them.

plus my gf lives in SB, i went there 2 years in a row. u won't be able to get into anything b/c it gets packed quick and everyone that knows the person who throws the party will invite their friends.. not random people just because they want them to drink their shizz.

the street itself isn't a "party" there are cops rolling around on horses ready to arrest anyone and everyone and i'm pretty sure you just graduated HS, so you're not 21 anyways. 90% of those people who go, roam the street hoping to get in, then drive back because they didn't get into shit. happens a lot.

and don't worry, im just looking out for u, u hear all these things, but it ain't true. but if u do go, eat at "free birds" order the nachos with at least the cheese, steak, rice then add whatever u like.

Yeah the block where the students live at UCSB is notorious for having side mirrors kicked off. saw more than a few mirrors dangling by the wires when I went to my friends' party this spring.

Btw, there's a lot of assholes in SB drunk dudes cussing at random passerby's. If you don't know anyone, the host/friends of the host will be like "wtf?"

I took my gf to my friend's party there, and one of the housemates was basically interrogating my gf saying, "oh who are you with? and who's that person here with?" I wanted to bash her fucking face in.

overall, i'm not going to sb ever to party again. LA all the way.

Not gonna lie, I don't know too many people there, but I'm going with my gf and her cousin (year older than us) is in a frat there. Plus about 15 people I know are going and they all know people, etc, etc, so I'm sure I'll get in to a few places.

It's funny, people have been telling me the streets are just one big party and that houses are open to everybody, but I guess not...I believe what you guys say over what others tell me.

And yeah I just graduated but come on who doesn't have a fake ID these days?

Maybe I'll just go to hard instead.

Thanks though.

I went to beverly high...class of 09...turning 19 in december.

Hard sounds pretty sick and the lineup is really good, but my gf hates raves and god knows the trouble I'll get into if I go and she's not there.

Funny, she wants to go to universal too, it sounds pretty fun... SB is sounding less appealing the more I think about it.

Whatever you do DO NOT go to monster massive.

oh damn so you're like 10 minutes from ww huh? thought you graduated from college hahah, where you going to school now?

my gf used to pop, but since i started going out with her she hasn't really smoked or popped hahah yeah raves are just orgies LOL

hahaha my gf's from san jose so she hasn't really been to universal

I was really hyped to go to SB, then when I got there, it wasn't that great besides hanging out with friends. If you go, eat at the mexican place that's open all night, it's crowded, but when you're buzzed, the nachos taste tooooooooooooooo good hahah

Ah man, rolling is the most amazing experience...I've done it 3 times and then I stopped...it's just so damn bad for you.

But yeah I go to SMC now, hope to transfer to UCLA in a year or so. I'm always down in westwood, either eating at in n out, felafel king, or ami sushi.

The more I think about it, the less I want to go to SB, and the more I wanna go to hardfest. Shit...now to convince my girlfriend.

My friend got arrested for public intoxication a few halloween's back. Spent the night in jail.

The police there will be out in force and they won't take shit from anyone... so be careful if/when you go.

my friend tried to walk back to his place when we were in santa cruz and he was blacked out. Apparently he was trying to unlock a bike, which he thought was the one I let him borrow and the cops got to him. My friend kept repeating my bike combo to the cops but still booked him lol. He also had his fake ID with him, but when he was at the station, the cops were asking, "so you're 22?" and my friend was like, "What? No, I'm 18". And the cops were confuzzled

Yeah I think a night in the drunk tank with other drunkies and hobos would ruin your night, lol. As long as you and your gf are walking around without being obnoxious or without tripping over stuff, you should be fine.

its only fun if you can get into a party, even if u knew friends u won't have much luck (not saying u don't have good friends). that's just how packed it is; everyone wants to go and get in and everyone has friends. just saying

i wasted 2 halloweens there wandering around and i know my cousin and hs friends are in UCSB frats and i STILL couldn't get in.

i rather go to knotts which i might.

^you gotta be VIP you'll have a better chance if you know the host, or someone close to the host. Another thing, go early and mingle with the people living there, that way they're recognize you later in the night.

Knotts wasn't too fun. Someone broke into my bros car, smashed all 4 door windows, jacked his double din navi, and a subwoofer.

I had some good times in sb on Halloween. Beleave it or not one Halloween I decided to not drink and just taxi people. Cause everyone needs a taxi and all the taxis are booked. People will pay like 50 bucks a trip. I made 70 bucks for a trip when it started raining lol. Everyone's drunk and cant drive so yeah theyll pay what u offer. At some intersections people are running crazy at the limos there to grt in. So if someone brought there minivan u could make some good cash. I gotta say my best run was when 4 stunningly sexy chicks In lingerie hopped on my ride. Pretty much had naked luscio
us ass on my seats. Very nice
