Okay, the riot police are now in Kenmore Square.

[randomness]

There was a sea of people in the streets around Kenmore Square; then some moron decided to set something on fire in front of the McDonalds. Someone else picked up a trash can and threw it at the McDonalds, and now the riot police have arrived in a phalanx, backed up by fire engines (I'm guessing for water cannon).

It looks like the crowd is backing off, fortunately, up a couple of the avenues.

As I mentioned in a reply to gee_tar, the racket was crazy. Living with all the BU and BC students, less than a mile from Fenway, it was LOUD. Once the fireworks and airhorn stopped in the middle of the night, I was able to get to sleep.

Dodging all the puke and broken glass bottles on the way to work this morning was fun, too. I SO need to move...
