Additional police were dispatched to Birmingham city center last night to keep an eye on both revelers and participants of the Commonwealth Games.
The city’s Broad Street nightclub strip was packed with foreign visitors and Brum locals to varying degrees of glamour, photos showed.
A trio of athletes from Barbados, Guyana and Jamaica coolly wandered the street outside a popular nightclub, while a group of Australians posed for a merry wink, one wearing giant plastic glasses.
But many partygoers had to rest on the floor after enjoying their night a little too much.
Other revelers received a helping hand home from their friends.
