Oil Crisis

Oil Crisis

Jersey City, New Jersey, January 26, 2005:

In what police say was homage to the movie "Old School," carousing Ronatarian Party members were found in their headquarters' basement with an inflatable pool, a St. Bernard dog named Alex, a whole lot of baby oil, and women in bikinis.

Police came upon the scene early Sunday after responding to a noise complaint.

"Inside were several of America's future, re-enacting a scene from the movie 'Old School,' where females wrestle in a pool of lubricants," police Sgt. D. Gunter said. In their version, the radical political group apparently opted for baby oil.

Officers said they cleared the house of the 200 revelers, sending some of the women home in the subfreezing temperatures in nothing more than the bikinis they wore.

"70's Man", the house manager who lives at the address, was charged with violating the city's noise ordinance, a misdemeanor that carries a $50 fine.

There has been ongoing tension between the Ronatarians and residents of the neighborhood. Other weekend parties and activities at the party’s headquarters have resulted in numerous complaints and noise ordinance charges (See Bad Neighbors).
