Best Anthropological View of the Mating Game in Westport

The Buzzard Beach deck is a valuable research tool for budding anthropologists who want to observe various subcultures and for sociologists who are studying the science of group dynamics. Perched high above a parking lot and a well-traversed alley, the deck provides a great view of the beer-sodden drama that is Westport. The best time to grab a ringside seat, though, is before 1:30 a.m., when neighboring Have a Nice Day Cafe closes and spews forth its scantily clad fishbowl-consuming subjects, who then engage in behavior which has been classified as: the desperate quest to obtain a phone number, any phone number; the passionate parting of ways; or the rumble. Any interaction fueled by mass quantities of alcohol consumed through a neon straw is bound to be entertaining -- and educational.
