    been happening forever. poor people been eating and fishing there since i could remember visiting the park. and i'm sure it been that way before that. i been visiting since the late 80's crappy and dangerous back then :p. but fun as hell when cutting school and running around with no fences etc...

    i cut elementary school. i went to a ghetto school nobody noticed.
