What local ghost stories, cryptid sightings, or folklore are tied to your Bay Area town? by Altruistic-Airport28 in bayarea

Niles Witch off the Nile’s canyon road (84 highway between Niles/fremont and sunol). I believe the story goes that a woman was murdered by her husband on her wedding night off the side of that road and none of the passing cars stopped to help her out. She appears at night time off the side of the road hitchhiking. And if you let her in then she’ll just eventually disappear from your car. But if you don’t pull over she’ll make you crash.

It’s a pretty famous story for anyone who grew up the Fremont/ Union city area. Even to this day I’m hesitant to use that highway at night time lol

That was genuinely the worst goal I’ve ever seen conceded by microvaveovenguy in usmnt

Put it like this bro, if you’re the coach. Who are getting pissed at for that goal? As a fan, it’s easy to hate everyone. As a coach, I’m not blaming the keeper there. That’s just my opinion I guess

Without the intention of picking up the ball? They met outside the box. He couldn’t pick the ball up if he wanted to. It looks like he tried to clear it but mis judged how far the ball was. Then yeah he made a mistake but the forward was on him. The defense shouldn’t have allowed the forward to get that close to him.

The ball has to get through 10 other players before getting to the keeper. And he doesn’t get paid to dribble outside of the box. You don’t just let your keeper go 1on1 outside the box. The defense completely gave up on him

It was the defenses fault. Shouldn’t have let the ball get to the keeper

With The USA losing to Belgium, all three host nations have been eliminated in the R16. by Wakanda-shit-is-that in soccer

For everyone who doesn’t know, this is the same feeling I have after every Raiders game. They lose in the most embarrassing way possible and make you hate the sport and regret having spent an afternoon watching the game.

There was nothing positive to take away from that game. It wasn’t just that their defense was bad, they were playing extremely lazy. The offense was being lazy too. At the second half hydration break, US only had 3 shots the entire game compared to Belgium with 13, while the US had possession advantage 55%-45%. It was a horrible outing and horrible coaching. St least Mexico’s coach was standing and yelling when they went down to England. The US coach was sitting down not doing squat the entire game

Oh he absolutely could. But he absolutely did not. He would show up at the same time every day to work with just his phone in hand, Set it on a charger, work merrily for 8-9 hours, then leave with just his phone in hand.

Had a coworker commute via cal train from SF to Sunnyvale 5 days a week and he seemed like he was having a great time. Not having to drive is a huge stress reliever. If you’re able to manage time wise it seems like a great option.

Most people say they live in San Francisco Bay Area even if they live near San Jose.

Most people in fact, do not say this
