I remember we used to drive into the city at night with our bikes strapped to the trunk and park along LSD (Lake Shore Drive), then bike to multiple bars/coffee shops until the sun came up. Rush street and the surrounding area was always the go-to party district back in the early 90's. Then, after every one is good and plastered someone would always shout "Let's go to Starved Rock!". Always a bad idea. Everyone would be sleeping by the time we got there. I just can't do shit like that anymore, but dam it was a lot of fun.
Today updated, since I need money for stuff like living and I'm at work, I get to watch reps from Kentucky State burn one my units I designed. Then it's off to watch some baseball.

I'm glad you've got some good memories here, Plank! I've been here 7 years but haven't yet had a reason to travel south of the downtown library.
In an effort to get out of the house my guests and I headed down to the Canal Fest in Tonawanda the other night. Dear god, it was a miserable, wretched, garbage-filled expanse of cultureless, drunken, and obnoxious cretins. Call me pretentious but my skin crawled at the very sight of the place.
We walked the canal but exited as quickly as possible. It's sad what's become of this city.
