It's not getting filled yet, there will be another delay or legal battle. Guarantee.

 

[anthonys735]

Pretty much. Like just about everything in this city it's done in the most dumbass manner possible.

Maybe if they sell 500 membership to the Pit for $100/ea like Rupp planned we can get something built on the site.

I enjoyed it as green space.

 

[MaxPowerrr]

One of our grandkids will fall in The Pit.

 

[SAECATFAN]

All of my wife's friends have boys. Seems like very few girls being born recently. Weird.

And yes yes we have a Geese and a SAE. It'll be like living in Alaska for them.

?

 

[BBdK]

I don't follow the situation closely, what exactly is the holdup. Just Lexington being Lexington?

 

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

Sometimes I wonder how many banks a city the size of Lexington can support. As it stands, I think the people/bank ratio here is currently 4:1.

****** project that didn't pencil out. Capital markets told it to GTFO.

 

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

Maybe Lexington should market itself as the "Donut City." Just a big-*** hole in the middle of everything.

Centre Pointe by Rodan+Fields.

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

The Webb brothers had grandiose plans, everyone knew they would turn into ****, and they did ... but not before a giant GD hole was dug.

 

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

It's been interesting to watch the 21C project develop in comparison to the pit across the street.

 

[Ribsandwhitebread]

A few more ****** "Irish" bourbon bars would be a huge hit in Lexington.

 

[Geese Feeder]

The night polo matches were dope. Really unique. Paddock surrounded by high rises and a lively boozed up crowd.

That could have been sooo Lexington but it turned out this financial/development debacle is much moreso Lexington.

And yes yes we have a Geese and a SAE. It'll be like living in Alaska for them.

I really don't know many people with girls. Seems like everyone has 2-4 boys. If there is a girl, she's outnumbered by her brothers.

I know there are girls out there, but just seems like there are a lot more boys lately. Alaska has a lot more men than women, thus the reference.

[BBdK]

Yeah.

Learn Alaska, Brooks.

 

[MaxPowerrr]

The green space did look dope and had some real "urban renewal" potential.

OTOH The Hole makes a unique downtown destination. Should be on the cover of all the in-room "Lexington!" magazines in the local hotels imo

 

[anthonys735]

The Webbs and Lexington.

 

[wcc31]

I'd rather go to a red carpet Louisville club opening than a polo match if that tells you anything.

North Lime Coffee and Donuts new downtown location

 

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

As a parent, The Hole is ideal re threatening your children. "Don't want to eat your broccoli? Looks like someone wants to be abandoned in The Hole!" (insert laugh track)

 

[Crankdatmustard_rivals66299]

So Duke wins a big game and then loses a big game.

99.9999999% of teams who do this usually hold steady from their previous week ranking.

Duke? Nah. Moved up 5 spots in the AP top 25 [laughing]

 

[MaxPowerrr]

The Hole situation summed up in a Simpsons meme:

 

[JHB4UK]

thank god Louisville didnt allow a bigass hole to be dug in the middle of downtown for that Museum Plaza disaster

 

[Ribsandwhitebread]

73- have any stats to back up that Alaska claim?

 

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

I mean, I'm not sure a lot of people truly appreciate what a big *** hole it is. It is a gigantic gaping abomination.

 

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

To Lexington's credit, I'm pretty sure 98% of the population almost immediately knew this would end poorly. The problem is that the other 2% were making the decisions regarding the project.

 

[KingLlama]

Can you imagine trying to eat or shove a pound of weed up your ***?

Yes.

[GrandePdre]

Put a Kroger in the hole. Watch everyone lose their minds.

 

[wildcat1973_rivals160373]

Alaska is 52% Male to Female, highest in the country.
2nd highest is Wyoming at 51%.
Kentucky, for reference, is 49%.

 

[UKwizard]

For those who have not been to Lexington in quite a while, where exactly is the hole?

nm I think I just found it on google maps.

 

[cricket3]

They should put it a small to midsize music venue that attracts smaller national artists. That would probably be successful. Maybe even a dive bar.

 

[cricket3]

It's surrounded by Upper, Main, Limestone, and Vine. So basically the heart of downtown.

-COY candidates this year....Altman? Mack? McCaffery? Feels like other than those three, every Top 25 team was expected to be there.

-Yep, I remember an old "Oprah" episode where they brought all these dudes from Alaska to Chicago because there weren't enough single women up there. I'm not proud about knowing this.

-Okay, it's time for every fanbase to quit calling itself "_______ Nation". How many NATIONAL fanbases are there? Probably one hand's worth, between CFB and CBB. So I don't need to turn on a UC-Irvine game and see "ANTEATER NATION" on my screen. Actually, I don't need to turn on an UC-Irvine game period, except to watch that Ndiaye kid.

-Felt bad for dropping over $100 for my kids' softball gear at Dick's the other day, until a friend told me that they dropped over $500 for their kids' gear. Same ages, same sports.

Don't you have 3 boys? Don't they play sports with other boys? Aren't almost all of their friends at this age boys?

Learn confirmation bias.

Coach K- don't you see how depleted his roster is?

 

[anthonys735]

Seems like it may be a quiet year on coaching jobs.

-Wisky going to stick with Bo's guy?
-Memphis will open up I assume.
-UNLV will swing for the fences and miss.
-UL?

 

[BBdK]

Got 12 for tonight...13 if Suter comes.

:fire:

 

[PuffyNips]

I don't understand why you guys do shots when you go out.

 

[VernHatton52]

Providence, ftw. Co-ed catholic, different state but only 10 minutes from home, Fuzzy Zoeller playing Sam Malone at my junior prom party. Good times.

 

[SAECATFAN]

That was the problem, Willy. I do no shots.
