transportation around the city isnt cheap.


As long as you stick to the Subway & Bus, you'll spend no more than $35 on transportation for the week. We usually stay in the UWS near the 72nd St Station. There's an express train that gets you to TS in about 5 mins.
I had to look up the meaning of 3 words today!

I'm nervous getting on a tilt-a-whirl operated by one of those carnies.


I'd be more nervous about the unsupervised youths waiting/cutting in line for the tilt-a-whirl

However the kid who got beat up should have known that staying in a frat party and not being in the frat can end poorly.


Considering there was a massive brawl right after this would lead me to believe this wasn't a private function at the time.

But why is WBRZ reporting on an incident from Aug 2 now?


I don't think yall realize how slow the system moves. It can take months for BRPD to complete a report with all the shite that goes down in this town.

But to he fair that video does look like only part of a story.


After they jumped the kid, he was taken to the hospital, a brawl broke out after that. I assume it was a result of what happened to the kid.
Not at all (as I'm currently enjoying my Sunday gummies).

I came in here about to post the “what year is it” gif not looking at the original date of the post lol


Before I looked at the date I thought it was a new post about an Ex Machina reboot or sequel. lol
I'm still waiting for the N word tapes I was promised by Tom Arnold in 2016.

I've only used USpark. Never had an issue & have never had to wait more than 2 minutes for shuttle. Join the club for points for free parking.

I'd say that they had a pretty good run from the 50s through the 80s


I don't doubt this. I just wasn't there to witness it, lol.
The 90's were peak Vegas. Mirage, Treasure Island, Bellagio, Mandalay Bay, NYNY, Excalibur, MGM Grand, etc were all brand new. Most profits came from gaming, so parking was free and food was reasonably priced. It's totally changed and not for the better.
Let me help you out here. The Mirage was once the largest hotel in the world. It was recently purchased by Hard Rock and is currently undergoing a complete reimagining which includes a new guitar shaped tower. The photo you have posted is a rendering of the completed project (ETA 2027).

I was there too and I said the same thing. Very impressive tonight.
