Tailgating hUim\m service & lepaitlotalldomestic& //prf vehicles. ban set for i, M% Honda, Lms, Jo0& Volkswagen. younger acts BY ERIN O. STATTEL Staff Writer HOLMDEL — Consumption of alcohol while tailgating at the PNC Bank Arts Center will be limited to older crowds during this summer's concert series. Joe Orlando, a spokesman for the New Jersey Turnpike Authority, said that the Turnpike Authority had to take an addi- tional step after last summer's Gwen Ste- fani concert. Last summer's concert season culminated with the deaths of two concertgoers and 490 arrests for underage drinking. As a result, a ban on consumption of alcoholic beverages while tailgating was put into effect. The new ban will not allow tailgating at events that attract younger concertgoers. "Unfortunately, the behaviors were legendary in the course of the arts center at that concert," Orlando said. "It got so much attention with young kids going to the hospital with alcohol poisoning that something had to be done." Orlando also said that arrests were not the main goal, but that, "We need to make Family owed and operated. Providing expert services to our customers for over 48 years! this behavior stop." "For this summer, some of the clearly youth-oriented music concerts should 1490 Route 1 North » North Brunswick • Next to DCH Saturn require a total ban on tailgating," said Assemblywoman Amy Handlin (R-13).
