Honestly, a full-on line brawl back when minor league hockey was at Boardwalk Hall. Also, the complete pandemonium that was the one time they did Dollar Beer Night.

Long time ago we were on the boardwalk in front of ballys and this guy comes from under the boardwalk and slits his wrists in front of everyone.

i've seen a seagull snatch an entire piece of pizza from someone's plate on the boardwalk when i was there over the summer

over the years, the drunk belligerents getting kicked out of the night clubs used to be entertaining

I was waiting for an elevator at Claridge to go to their rooftop bar. A lady comes out of the elevator pushing a human-like figure in a wheelchair with a garbage bag over the head. Still not sure if it was a body or a mannequin. Either way, bonkers.

I used to go there a lot with my grandma in the 90s. When I was 10, my cousin and I watched a homeless guy drag a newspaper box with some chains and leave it in the ocean.

Walking back to the hotel north on pacific ave at 1am after the 1st night of Metallica’s Orion Fest and somebody dumped piss on the couple walking like 20 feet in front of us. And like immediately after that, we saw a sex worker get robbed on the other side of the street.

Another time, waiting at the IMAX ticket line at the Trop, there was a long ass line of rats scurrying along the baseboards.

Edit: at the Borgata after watching Jim Gaffigan, wife and I stepped into the elevator and she slipped on and ALMOST fell in a sprawling puddle of vomit.

Edit 2: trans person wearing a see through fishnet body suit and sexy dancing in front of the line waiting to get in to see TSO at the convention center. Cops sitting in the car just off the boardwalk were cheering them on while eating huge donuts. I dropped the dancer a $20. It was a fun interesting time.

A few years ago the music teachers moved their state convention to the Sheraton. They go to clinics all day....and at night they basically go casino hopping. Have you ever seen a rager of music teachers pound $1000 of hard booze in an hour? holy shit. And then they come back here the next morning for 8am clinics where people are blasting their instruments or giving talks on feelings and strategies for rehearsing. Bonkers.

I was waiting to cross the street near the outlets and on the other side was this perfect looking blonde family. Crossing their path was this probably homeless drugged up looking man. Just as the family realized they should probably not cross the street at that time, the guy vomits all over the street. They were rightfully horrified. It was like it happened in slow motion.

Almost got into a fist fight with two strippers at scores because they thought I snuck a guy in the stall (I was alone).

Watched a drunk couple in their 50s actively punching each other on the boardwalk while, no one tried help. Broad daylight.

Found a couple of bags of coke under a toilet seat at the show boat.

Back when you couldn’t drink after 10pm people found really interesting places to stash their booze on their bodies so they could continue the party.

I went to a UFC fight at boardwalk hall, and there were more fights in the crowd than there was for the fights we paid for. I’m talking full on brawls between fans & fighters’ teammates, families of fighters vs their opponents family, and just random drunk dudes vs eachother. Izzy Adesanya was doing a free meet & greet and everyone was too busy fighting amongst themselves to care. Even one fighter in this post-fight interview asked the crowd to stop fighting. The UFC hasn’t been back to AC since

You had to pass it if you walked on that side of the street if heading to the Trop. I Always stopped in for smokes on the walk.
Needless to say when I realized what was going down, I swung my head back forward like I didn’t see shit. I know the code 😆

One time someone wandered onto the casino floor at the Trop, up at the tables, who had shit their pants. The whole floor stunk and it was clear who'd done it. This person was fucked up, stumbling around, clothes tattered.

Security came over and kindly escorted them to the bathrooms. About 20 minutes later, they came out and started drifting from table to table, looking for something to play. They fuckin let this dude stay after he'd shit his pants.

Didn't even change his clothes.

I went to an Irish Pub (is THE Irish Pub a place? Bad memory). Anyway, the owner was there with a toy poodle that looked like teddy bear I still sleep with after 35 years. She had spent ridiculous amounts of money keeping her pet alive long after it’s natural time. I think I recall it was deaf and blind by that point, too.

This isn't a shocking story but it was fun. My buddy and my girlfriend were sitting at a $5 blackjack table. I went to sit in the open seat but casino staff stopped me, said the seat was reserved. At a $5 table? A few min later they usher a relaxed looking gray haired dude in a t shirt and jeans to the table. He sits down and buys fucking $10k of chips and begins to bet the max each hand. Everyone at the table was loving it. He was kinda rowdy, celebrating all the wins, rubbing his nips through his t shirt a few times to celebrate, etc. We asked him why he was there and he said most people at the high roller tables don't know how to enjoy the game.

I rented a room in the Tropicana Hotel for a real estate convention. I was relaxing on the bed when I noticed a huge cockroach just casually crawling up the wall. This MF was huge. Three inches at least. Called the front desk. They sent a security guy for some reason. He just said “Ohh shit”. Told me to pack up and took me to a much nicer room on the higher floor.

Walking on boardwalk with a few friends at 2am (don’t suggest this) a homeless man let’s go of his Pitbull who’s on a leash God knows why. The Pitbull who I’d say is 70 pounds runs straight at us and my friends and I split sides and the Pitbull runs straight through us. The homeless guy bikes past us and grabs the dog and acts like nothing happened. We weren’t too sober so we somewhat ran away.

I wonder if this is the same dude I saw piss himself at the Tropicana. My friend and I were waiting outside a restaurant for our other friends when this dude in ratty grey sweatpants wandered off the casino floor, then just came to a stop in the middle of the walkway, stared into space, and let loose.

Not the craziest but I watched a fight between 4 people in line for rides on the pier, and it ended with someone threatening another other person with a knife and pepper spraying them. The guy who got pepper sprayed ran behind a ride and cried before the cops arrived. In typical AC fashion, nobody cared or even bothered to move out of the way lol

Someone being robbed/mugged at the entrance of their apartment building. This happened on a path you had to walk down heading towards the Tropicana casinos. They walked this way often to purchase cigarettes. When they saw what was going on, they did not intervene.

Was in that convenience style store in the trop in the middle of the night grabbing some snacks. Nobody around cept for one other guy when out of nowhere two guys came running up and started fucking the guy up. They laid him out and then went running off and the dude just gets up off the ground blood pouring out his nose and just goes running out after them.

But craziest is probably seeing this giant white dude on the boardwalk late at night screaming and calling these 3 little black girls Niglets and screaming the n word over and over and trying to pick fights with literally anyone who walked by even saying shit to women and the 3 girls.

Might be a bit tame but;

Was standing leaning over the rail on the boardwalk, facing the ocean, with my 8 year old daughter. We were waiting for my wife in the bathroom before we made our way down to the beach.

As we're waiting, 2 men and a topless woman come stumbling out from under the boardwalk, walk up the ramp and down the other side towards the road.

They were definitely junkies or homeless, but it was just an odd sight for me and my 8 year old to see lol.
