TheDeuce Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 [/b] Louisville is good enough for the PGA, The Kentucky Derby, one of, if not the biggest firework shows in the world, a state of the art brand new arena, top notch college(not just for sports), what is there not to like for anyone from any part of the state? Excellent question... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MentschTrachtGottLacht Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 ..... I loathe UL but love the city of Louisville. Being unable to separate the two seems really simple-minded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJAlltheWay24 Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Stayed in the Galt House once, it was awesome. Been to a wedding Reception in the Convention Center, thoroughly enjoyed it. Stayed at The Brown Hotel (thanks rockmom) also very nice. Thoroughly enjoyed 4th Street a few times, especially a bachelor party or two but if ya ask me, plenty of much better spots to go out around the city (e.g. Bardstown Road).

Getslow Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Looks like I'll be down on Preston Street tonight. I'll let you guys know if I hop in on any of this and rob a liquor store just for the rush... *Note to LMPD monitors* That was a joke. I would never. I'll be watching a couple bands play at a bar.

Getslow Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 In case we were wondering if LMPD is taking this seriously... it looks like all hands are on deck tonight. A couple downtown bars I follow on Facebook have taken the time to assure customers that there will be regular LMPD presence along the Main Street commercial corridor all night.

jericho Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I wish Louisville still had the state football finals there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldweatherfan Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Here's the thing. Louisville is for the most part a pretty good city. Relatively safe in most areas. Pockets of bad that you have to watch out for. I enjoy going there from time to time. Like the area around the Yum center. 4th street live is fun. Like the Come Back Inn. The area around Bellarmine College was fun. Was at Molly Malone's on Shelyville Rd on Wednesday and really like that area. But plain and simple. Many people don't like, or are uncomfortable in cities, and Louisville is a city. Lexington is a town. U of L is a very good school, but the one thing you here from people outside of Louisville over and over is: the campus is dirty. By city standards...no it's not. By town standards...yes it is. I'm not saying UK is a better educational facility or not, but the campuses don't compare. The UK campus is beautiful. The U of L campus is a city campus, constricted by buildings and roads. It is what it is, nothing more nothing less. It's not an indictment of the quality of education, and some of you just need to get over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colonels_Wear_Blue Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Well it's just cherries that you chose to live in Cincinnati then isn't it? Yeah. They don't fiddle with any of this "purge" business up in the 'Nati. When they want trouble, they have a straight-up RIOT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getslow Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Here's the thing. Louisville is for the most part a pretty good city. The LMPD is taking the threat seriously... it doesn't mean that the threat is actually serious. Scaring the devil out of white suburbanites with how bad things are in the West End and city center is just about the favorite pastime of Louisville's local media. I don't believe anything will happen. I'm going to hang out at a bar on Preston Street and feel completely safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
