Chaos ensued during their event designed to promote needle exchange programs.

“We certainly didn’t want people banging hub right there in the middle of the parking lot and then passing the used needles around,” said Majors.  “Who knew our fifteen-foot hypodermic needle float would be such a trigger?”
