Orange Crush an annoyance for Tybee Island residents

TYBEE ISLAND - Tybee Island residents are not putting out the welcome mat for the thousands of college students who are heading to the island tonight for Orange Crush. <br> <br> Tybee Police Chief James Price expects as many as 11,000 people -- more than triple Tybee&#39;s population -- to come to the island for a weekend of partying. <br> <br> Each year during Orange Crush, traffic becomes snarled, and partiers climb on top of their cars. Last year, Price said there was a problem with people having sex in cars -- something he said police will watch for this year. <br> <br> Orange Crush started 13 years ago as an end-of-the-year bash for students at Savannah State University. But the party has become a word-of-mouth event with no promoters. <br> <br> Price -- who learned on Monday that Orange Crush was this weekend -- has hired 125 officers from five different law enforcement agencies to be on duty.
