“70 to face court in Hampton rumble” was front-page news on this day in 1963. Although Hampton was a dry town, at least 70 of the estimated 100,000-person crowd, mostly out-of-state college students, were charged with drunkenness, disorderly conduct and disturbing the peace. Thousands of dollars in damage was done to motels, homes and businesses, with police deploying tear gas and firehoses to disperse the crowd.
