Pigeons

Outside the Basilica there were these vendors selling seed to feed the pigeons. The idea was that the pigeons would eat the food out of your hands. In practice this led to pigeons attacking any person who had purchased seed. Strangely they never attacked the vendors. Talk about a bad idea to let these guys sell seed. I think the Piazza would be better without having thousands of pigeons walking around and attacking people. When you walked through you almost had to avoid stepping on the pigeons. They are violating the pact!
