At their sole discretion, EventFest, Ye Mystic Krewe of Gasparilla and Law Enforcement reserve the right to confiscate Media Passes and remove the bearer from the secured parade area. Officers are requested to extend all assistance possible, consistent with existing conditions, and report any abuse or misuse of Media Passes to EventFest and Event Command immediately.
