Wow the US Park Police have definitely become much more serious...
Went to undergrad in DC. Hanging out at the different memorials was one of the things to do in DC...
A group of us were drinking and climbing on The Awakening at 4am (little known memorial down the way from the Jefferson) when the 4 cars of US Park Police showed up... no one got arrested. We were simply told to dispose of the beer and leave.
Many nights were spent watching friends climb up and sit in Lincolns lap...
Never once were we hassled or arrested. One girl did get a ticket for Climbing, Traversing and Descending a National Monument... but that got thrown out.
