Okay, people. We know Lollapalooza has a lot of great music and good times. But sometimes people have too good of a time. Please stay out of the fountain. It costs a lot of money to keep it in good shape and we'll all be better for it. [via]

The stench of City Hall. No, it is not corrupt politicians or unwashed Aldermen.

I love the lolla-losers yelling "let her go" and going "awww" when the slap bracelets on her.
Some park employee now has to go check for damage because these dopes wanted to fondle each other in the water.
More of these idiots on youtube. When the morons start cheering and calling these dopes "heroes" a bit of my faith in humanity died.

What's wrong with wading in a fountain. Didn't they do that in La Dolce Vida?
Oh wait, I forgot that we live in a communist dictatorship here.
"It costs a lot of money to keep it in good shape and we'll all be better for it."
Depends who gets the contracts to "fix" it.
I disagree. Take down the barriers. Let people wade. Downtown is too sanitized and whitewashed, people in the fountain would do it good.
Y'know, there's a LAKE about a half a block from there right?
It's an 80 year old display fountain, not a damn waterslide.
Stop trying to harsh our buzz, jess nevins. What are you a fascist or something?
Once we finish taking down the fences so everyone can treat that intricately detailed fountain like our own personal kiddie pool we're heading over to the AIC to dress the Greek statues in ironic t-shirts and get all up in the Van Gogh portrait's face.
Right. And then one of them slips and cracks their head open, or drowns, then they sue the city and the taxpayers are on the hook for another few million wasted dollars.
or, hey! let's scratch our name on here for all to see!
So you drop a hundred dollars for party and you get tossed in the pokey, nice.
You're only young once.
When we walked by that area, we watched one person jump in, wade out, get arrested, everyone cheers, watched another person jump in, climb the fountain, get arrested, everyone cheers, etc etc. What's the point?? Then again ... watching these people jump in the fountain was more entertaining than watching the Killers.
Next year: Bean climbing! Weeeeeee....
If someone hurt themselves doing this, their parents will sue the city in an effect to excuse their kid's drunkenness. In this case, the CPD is looking after you twentysomething softies. You're not in college anymore. Grow up.
