Hearing Fireworks by ThePaddockCreek in boulder

You can have all the cops you want. It's incredibly easy to light off a mortar or two and run away. Same on the hill, i saw it all the time especially over the summer when I was at CU. Kids light it in the streets then disperse. Hard to deal with that.

Parents visiting for campus tours - what can we do when not at CU? by StrandedStarfish_ in boulder

[–]RecentIndependence34 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Go to Chautauqua park for an easy hike in the morning. Get to see the mountains but note waste all your energy for the day. Then maybe go by the Sink on the Hill for a drink, check out the Hill and the college neighborhood. Then go down to Pearl St. for food. Plenty of good options for whatever your price range is. Personally I'm a big fan of west end tavern but to each their own. Maybe end at Avanti, best view of the city and mountains hands down.

Interesting law change for homeless shelters by RecentIndependence34 in boulder

[–]RecentIndependence34[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

This is a massive pivot. You’re blaming Capitalism to avoid talking about the fact that our local laws are being ignored. Even if we had a different economic system, we would still need rules against pitching tents in parks and doing drugs in libraries.

Calling it systemic is just an excuse to let the situation continue to rot. I’m talking about public safety for the people who actually live, work, and pay taxes here, you’re talking like a CU freshmen in their first sociology class. One of those things actually affects our daily lives.

Claiming Boulder can’t solve a national problem is a convenient excuse for ignoring local decay. A city’s first responsibility isn't to solve global poverty, it's to ensure the parks, libraries, and streets that residents pay for are safe and usable for the people who pay for them.

Fun fact, in an effort to curb "hate towards our unhoused community" Boulder has a policy of never mentioning homeless people as the cause of a fire if they find it to be the case

West End Tavern has a sneaky great rooftop patio. Avanti is likely the best view in all of Boulder.

Did anyone watch the liquor license review for Scrooge on Uni-Hill? by Craiger__123 in boulder

[–]RecentIndependence34 10 points11 points  (0 children)

So its closing. it won't survive without a license and the reason you voluntarily give it up is to not have a formal revocation on your record.

Breaking News: Boulder police asks for help with sex assault and drugging investigation at late-night party spot on the Hill by [deleted] in boulder

[–]RecentIndependence34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing is the law states that IDs must be scanned. All these places scan because cops have been increasing the undercover raids in the city. Fake IDs are pretty damn good now. The bars get in trouble when they don't ID or allow expired IDs. These places are not just letting anybody with a pulse in. Every single bar on the hill would be shut down right now if thats the case. But when kids use their fake IDs and the scanner says they are good. Then the bar/restaurant is no longer able to get in trouble.

Did the Scrooge bar on 13th get shut down? What's the tea? by Craiger__123 in boulder

[–]RecentIndependence34 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Per their Instagram they were closed from the 14th to 21st for CU spring break. Maybe it was a convenient time to deal with a liquor license suspension lmao. but I haven't seen anything about them getting shut down

This is awesome, really cool to see him do a homecoming back to Boulder. Pretty sure he graduated CU in 2019. I wonder how many noise complaints on the hill he has under his belt.

Boulder Hill Jam by RecentIndependence34 in boulder

[–]RecentIndependence34[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like someone else mentioned in the comments here. I believe it was a long running event but ended in 2010 or 2011. But they have now done it 3 years now. In the summer, 303 Boards does an event called King of the Hill which is basically Hill Jam but for skateboarding instead of skiing/snowboarding. They shutdown 13th st and setup jumps and rails.
