People are lovely in Toledo! and most people just go to a festival to taste the food and have fun! they don't go to stir up trouble.
Mayor Bell reminds me of King Hussein in Jordan he would get on out on his motorbike and mingle with the people, no one knew he was King, that's a sign of a great leader!
I've been to other areas with better Irish festivals though, Toledo was more of a settlement for Germans, Polish, and Hungarians which is why I mentioned those.
Mayor Bell is awesome! I used to see him quite frequently. I sang Karioke with he and Mark Beier (Toledo Rockets announcer) a few years back at the MAC Football Championship game. Of course at that time he was the Fire Chief.
