Shut The Duck Up!

Protesters Hope To Take A Quack Out Of 'Noise Crime.'

PHILADELPHIA (CBS 3) ― Fed up Philadelphians gathered in protest Friday along Race Street and Delaware Avenue, hoping to shut the ducks up.

Members of the 'Shut The Duck Up' organization led the movement to quiet the 'Philadelphia Ride The Duck Tours,' calling the popular tourist attraction a loud, noisy and obnoxious ear sore.

Protesters hope Friday's demonstration will encourage the duck tour to revise its route, lower its music and PA system in residential areas and stop tourists from quacking at individuals on the street.
