I would never admit to it-that place was nasty when it was on Alameda!

Now Aloha Beach that was on N. Federal, about 62cnd was fun!
As was The Boogie Down, The Bare and Boogie, Shotguns hasent changed a bit over the years.


Not that I ever went to a peeler bar....

yeah, that is rough I'm sure. The Bus Stop outside of Boulder was gnarly.

Speaking of icons of youth, I bought my daughter a grocery store cap gun today. I got the kind that uses those crappy rollcaps. They work about 70% of the time. About 10% of the time it does work, it also starts on fire.

• I remember before C470 was built and all the hullabaloo about building it and the traffic And as someone mentioned when County Line Road was a 2 lane road up and down, up and down.
• I remember when you could go from Boulder to downtown Denver in about 30 minutes, any day, any time.
• When you could buy any house you wanted in city of Boulder for about 80 grand. (late 80's for you youngsters who think housing doesn't go down)
• I remember friends of my parents moving to Texas because they couldn't give their Aurora condo's away for 25 grand. (that they had paid 100,000 for, 1983-86 for your youngsters)
• Zang's Brewing Company (the sportsbar at I-25 and 23rd) (and Baby's Doe's across the street)
• How excited everyone was that the aquarium was opening.
• When people knew why 36 was called the turnpike.
• the old mousetrap (remember the torpedo truck?)
• Stapleton and those crazy runways over I-70
• the Rattlesnake Club (fancy ass restaurant downtown)
• After the Gold Rush (6th and Sheridan)
• ohhhhhhh, the tornado that hit at about 6 and Sheridan (1983 or so?)
• Central City before gambling
• When only one tunnel was open at Eisenhower (one is Eisenhower tunnel, one is Johnson tunnel, i forget which one opened first)
• Sitting in huge long traffic jams for HOURS waiting for them to finish I-70 thru Glenwood Canyon
• When the first stretch of E470 opened (I-25 to parker road)
• When the Bronco's were good. M & M connection, orange crush, etc.
• When the Buffalo's were good (now that is a long time ago), that crazy last minute 70 yard TD pass to beat Michigan
• The Nuggets (what was that coach's name all thru the 1980's?), all they did was run, great fun games. Then when Westphal took over and destroyed the team for 15 years.

This is a great thread.
