[It's up to the first poster to come up with a set up, and then each following post will either complete it or fill in the blank(s). And, as always, whoever posts the set up is certainly allowed to post their own completion/fill in as a follow up.]

Well, MB, Beautiful Downtown Newark (and I use the term loosely) in the early 1980's was about as warm and friendly as Hanoi during the Vietnam war. At the first festival back in 1983, there were so few guests staying there that the hotel shut down the affordable coffee shop Friday night and didn't open it again until Monday morning. I got hungry on Saturday and went out in search for food. I hadn't gotten very far when a very nice police officer stopped me and said that I really shouldn't be out there. I figured that he knew what he was talking about and I went back to the hotel and ate out of the candy machine for the rest of the weekend
To be fair, it wasn't all bad. There was a walkway from the Newark train station into the hotel so you never had to set foot in Newark proper. Big plus! Ironically, when they finally put a food court in the train station, that was the final convention in Newark for many years

Yeah, having a DS convention in downtown Newark, NJ was as “inspired” as having one at the hotel across from Route 1 and 9 at Newark Airport (where hotel guests have been robbed at gunpoint in the hotel parking lot).

What were JP and the other DS Festival officials possibly thinking?
