About 15 years ago I went on a group canoe trip, an annual event for some
lumberjacks based
in north east Rhode Island. 

For part of the camping experience we had someone drive through where we
were camping (he was with the group) while in an altered state, he got
hog tied to a tree (for his safety), then put in his car and the doors
tied shut, and someone slept on the roof of the car to make sure he
stayed in the car.

My tent was about 30 feet away from the gentleman sleeping atop the
car...

Did I mention the guys playing paintball, in full camo gear, in and
around the tents and cooking fires?

I don't know Scott, I think this one might have had enough "character" to
rate as a bad camp site....
