Town offers $100 gas cards to get boaters to parade

Ocean City is offering boaters $100 gas cards so its Night in Venice parade doesn't become a washout.

What a tough life " I don't have money for my boat". How about all those without. Ocean City is all about those that have it all. Come on' more than half your houses are seconds homes.

All so the local caterers can make more money and the summer residents can have their booze parties

Ocean City is a Jersey Shore Summer Resort Town. That extra bonus sure helped make this year's Night in Venice one of the best in years. Every street-end was packed with spectators and they got a good free show. Sort of like 4th of July, the Rockets Red Glare and Bombs Bursting in Air. Who paid for that O.C. Show? Did you? I didn't think so!
