Madison police impose four keg limit at Mifflin Street party
Madison police set a four keg per household cap for the annual Mifflin Street block party near the UW campus amid thousands of revelers. Despite the limit, many apartments still hosted large quantities with some addresses holding up to 16 kegs, while last year Houses reported as many as 50 kegs. About 210 people were arrested for disorderly conduct and open intoxicants, with organizers saying the cap is inadequate.
