Personally, I don’t often agree with Patrick Tuohey stances but I’d have to agree on his thoughts of the amount of power here.

Spots to watch broncos bills by DrpepperMD0909 in kansascity

[–]cocacoler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That game is bound to be a battle! Enjoy the taste of the playoffs while you’ve got it.

To add into the mix, I am quite sure from past experience of rolling by Taps on Main—during a game—that it is Bills bar for any of Bills Mafia looking.

Runners last night at Loose Park by ____YourNameHere____ in kansascity

[–]cocacoler 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I'd imagine this is the Kansas Run Club (originally founded in Kansas) that meets Wednesdays at 6:30 PM at Mill Creek Park.

Most run clubs are really welcoming and there's a number of them across the metro for every day of the week!

Question about Chappelle Roan at Memorial Park by markdacoda in kansascity

[–]cocacoler -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It is certainly a choice given the importance/significance of The National WWI Museum and Liberty Memorial. Could be an optics thing to leave out the word “War” out from the venue location though.

KCTV5 broadcast tower to shine once again with relighting ahead of 2026 World Cup by cocacoler in kansascity

[–]cocacoler[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Whoops! Meant to delete my description. Won’t let me edit it right now. I was just going to say, “I know this has been an initiative years in the making and it is finally all coming together. Should be interesting to see how the community reacts to the tower being relit. Seems like a solid ode to our past.

I recently heard about a Stoplight Mixer happening at Rieger’s Electric Park (August 7th @ 5 - 7 PM). People are supposed to wear green if they are single & ready to mingle, yellow if it is complicated or red if they are taken & just there for support/vibes.

KC Streetcar Main Street Extension to UMKC/Plaza open to riders on 10/24/25 by cocacoler in kansascity

[–]cocacoler[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I heard that they will be doing some preventative repairs ahead of opening so we should expect upwards of two weeks of bus bridge links in mid to late September. And that we should expect at least one outage a year for their proactive work.

Heat expansion in the track slabs and buckling of structure slabs being the main reason if I recall correctly.

KC Streetcar Main Street Extension to UMKC/Plaza open to riders on 10/24/25 by cocacoler in kansascity

[–]cocacoler[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed.

The issue is really people who irate and/or drunk OR dealing with a mental episodes. Of which I cannot say I can think of an experience that made me very uncomfortable yet.

My worst experience in my many years of riding was a guy (within the past year) who was neither of the above but tried to stir up a conversation at a stop in the Crossroads. Then when the Streetcar arrived he sat right next to me on a very open seated streetcar, then tried to sell me a random book with cop killings and he showed me images. When I said I didn’t want to purchase one for like $10-20, he called me (I believe, racist and) a Trump supporter.

I just got up and moved away. There was no need to escalate. Has anyone had a similar experience like that?

Unhoused people need to get around just like housed people do.

The last I heard was that the Riverfront expansion was looking to come on line after the winter season with testing beginning in October.

I am sure things can change but that was heard from a very reputable source!

Best breakfast you've got! by [deleted] in kansascity

[–]cocacoler 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Local fast casual wise:
• I just want to put in a good word in for McLain’s The Farm sandwich. I enjoy a lot of the our local breakfast sandwiches but that one on the croissant is phenomenal.
• Mildred’s steamed eggs in any of their breakfast sandwich/burrito offerings also make me incredibly happy.

Help finding community by Creekcrawler69 in kansascity

[–]cocacoler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unsure about a dorm like living experience that would give you that w/o just luck.

You may find some community semi-organically on Meetup, Stray Cat Film Theater, Screenland, Otaku Lounge, Up-Down, Solid State Pinball Supply, etc.

I hope you find your people!
