Suitable for Gipson's Capitol Police force in Jackson, Lakewood Colorado used to have cops with minimum 2 years of college who wore pressed white shirts and sport coats, no uniforms. Andy could add western hats and outlaw the sunglasses-perched-on-a-shaved-head style of typical cops and his officers would have a unique level of prestige and respect.
Hope he is not pressing his luck after a safe, well attended Fair!!
Stay frosty!
Cafe still not open wen we left at almost 9:00, no sign of a face painter, and the only costumes we saw were 4 adults and 2 kids, who apparently belonged to the woman clerk in the MS store, which is half the size and twice the price it used to be. No sign of any vendor give aways, and the "specialty food trucks" was apparently a single pizza truck at the entrance. None of the vendors we spoke to had any idea Cowboy Hat had even made a press release.
