Despite the wild scene, Chitwood reports everyone encountered was polite. The event was driven by social media hype, with no special event zone requested. Law enforcement made 133 arrests and had 50 deputies on the beach. Separate shootings are being investigated within the city limits, but none occurred on the beach.
