Given all the worries about traffic, run-ins with protesters and parking woes, it’s understandable if you’ve been avoiding downtown this week.
But tonight is historic — not the time to be sitting at home alone.
Cheer or boo with like-minded people while seeing Barack Obama accept the Democratic nomination at various watch parties being held throughout the metro area.
