The downstairs neighbor: What lurks beneath

    So I come home for a quick dinner around 7:30 p.m. or so, a break between putting out the college preview section and the live prep football final. Downstairs neighbor and a few of his redneck buddies (think Southern construction type) are already in full party mode.

    After the normal business that is Friday night (yadda, yadda, yadda), I come home for the night around 1:30. Party mode is still on, at least two guys and a woman. Only 2-3 people, but plenty of hollerin'.....

    It's now almost 2:30. They now have the stereo on. I've called the cops on them 2-3 times in the past, mostly last spring, only because a less-than-helpful apartment office manager told me to. I did try the direct approach prior to that, but that didn't work.

    Any ideas?

    Upper-deck them. Or call the cops again. Either way works.

    Exactly. Call the cops.

    No way. Go down to their party and f**k their girlfriends in front of them. ;D ;D :D

    I'd go with the call the cops again rout. And I would definitely complain to the apartment manager on Monday. You shouldn't have to put up with stereo's blasting at 2:30 a.m.

    Not sure I'd piss off drunk rednecks.

    If they're drunk rednecks, I'm not sure they'd be pissed off. :) :)

    Maybe they are into that kind of thing.
