Spring Break 2011 - the biggest week coming up March 12, 2011

**Teresa** · 03-10-2011, 12:29 PM

Well, Spring Break is officially here! So far so good. Plan for huge numbers hitting town next week! I hear its going to be more spring break visitors in one week than we've ever experienced before (we know that huge numbers are on break and within driving distance during that week). After seeing a brief article from Panama City Herald, I am thinking it very well could be true. Panama City Beach will be rocking and SoWal will likely be jumping.

You know the drill - go to Publix well before Saturday, go out to dinner very early, or just go out and get right in the middle of it all and be on spring break vacation yourself and enjoy!!! just be careful out there.

Data was distributed Thursday that showed that over 2 million spring breakers were up for grabs during the two-week period of March 6-19, while 173,000 students were off during the first week of March and only 51,000 during March 27 through April 2.

I know Alabama is coming next week and I believe Georgia. Anyone else have any details on nearby school spring break schedules? Or any good tips for locals and/or visitors during the next few weeks for safety and good fun? What are SoWal bookings looking like for the next several weeks?

We're coming from Houston since this is our Spring Break.

PCB has the National Guard on alert. They've only done that 1 or 2 other times. Brace yourself Effie!

Mississippi State is this week, and I think also Auburn, Alabama, and Indiana U. I'm just going by who's been down there whenever my daughter has been there. She just called and they were all screaming because they just passed the Destin Donut Hole--yum.

Yep, just drove home from Grayton to Seagrove. Some of those balconies were as over crowded and rowdy as any on PCB. :-/

I just know my husband is really pissed after he gets to work every morning.

Picked up my son from work in Seaside at 10:30 Friday night. As I went around the circle saw two deputy SUV's. The hood of one of them was completely covered with confiscated beer bottles, wine cooler bottles, and drinks. I'm glad they are keeping a watchful eye and trying to keep things calm. Kiddies, have some fun but wait until you are old enough to drink. Older kiddies, enjoy your drink but stick to walking!

The Natty drinkers and the Bud Light drinkers are currently tied in the Casa Scooterbug yard debris contest.

And those foam earplugs from Publix are worth every penny.

PCB Daily has some coverage and a few good photos of PCB spring break.

It was a busy week here by Eastern Lake. It's hard to remember the last time that Chelsea Loop and Ryan Street were so fully rented. It was mostly families, but we got a higher portion of college kids than usual - don't know if the rental agents are getting greedy or lax, or if the kids' folks were just more creative in sneaking them by. Fortunately, most of them partied so hard last weekend that they were pretty docile for the rest of the week.

We experienced our biggest week of sales this past week since we opened 18 months ago. Our largest last year of course was July 4th.....and we beat those numbers with this week's spring break! Barring any more unforseen natural disasters, this should be a great summer!

An off-duty WCSO deputy every night + some early evictions = pretty docile kids

Greed & stupidity contributed heavily to the college groups being there at all.

'Jersey' Angelina -- 86'd From Club After V.I.P. Fight
3/21/2011 3:15 PM PDT by TMZ Staff

Former "Jersey Shore" castmate Angelina Pivarnick was kicked out of a Florida nightclub last night after she got into an altercation with another woman ... TMZ has learned.

Angelina and The Situation were co-hosting an event at Club La Vela in Panama City, Florida -- when patrons began complaining to management about Angelina's behavior.

A rep from the club tells us Angelina was escorted from the property for being "rude to patrons and staff" ... but sources inside the establishment claim the final straw was when the former reality star "drunkenly tried to fight another girl in the V.I.P. area."

Angie left without further incident -- but she isn't permanently banned from the joint ... in fact, she's still scheduled to make a few more appearances in the near future.

UPDATE: Angelina claims she was never in a fight -- but tells us she's pissed at club security for putting her in a headlock when she got involved in a situation involving one of her friends.

Angelina says she's considering taking legal action against the club.
