Here's the thing: Worcester drivers are terrible, horrible, dangerous.

BUT

They're infinitely better than bad drivers in neighboring states because they're PREDICTABLY bad.

Worcester drivers will always bang a left when the light turns. They'll always nose in to your lane to force a space. They'll do every unsafe behavior that could cause an accident - and it never does, because everyone else is also an asshole and we all see it coming.

See a potentially dangerous situation up ahead? We all saw it, too, and we all do the absolute minimum (or less) to avoid it, and it doesn't happen.

Mine was maybe 13 years ago, so grain of salt.

Get there early and try to get parking in one of the lots. I was there until just before lunch but wasn't called to serve.

Whole thing was smooth, generally. I think it was the 2nd jury duty I ever had so I found the video amusing, still.

Regatta if you like Italian subs. Best bang for your buck.

If you don't mind a short drive out of town and down 31, try Ten West Market in Paxton.

Came here to say this. Alan's been awesome for decades.
