We're taking the kids to their first game and I didn't want to risk waiting, so I started working on tickets early to get 5 together. I thought we'd be in the cheap seats, but ended up buying 5 in Club 2, row 15 for a song. Now I can spend the next 2 months mentally preparing my children for the atrocities they're going to witness.

As long as you aren’t running the townie ghetto of High Street bars to and from, you’ll be fine…

Old enough to have pissed off Akers while I was playing racquetball in Bellmont.

Old enough to have had an afternoon Statesman paper route.

My father was a Silver Spur 75 years ago.

Yeah, so you’re about my age. Compare 6th Street in 1985 to 2005; is that the High Street analogy?

Wasn’t there in 2005. The job was a decade later so I wasn’t hitting High St in my late 40s while raising kids outside of having dinner at the tiki bar. The Bridge Park area , Clintonville, or Easton was where we went.

CBus is tracking Austin’s progress from about 30 years ago. Same liberal magnet in and conservative area and graduates don’t want to leave. Not on navigable water so heavy industry is tied to railway thus mostly white collar service jobs.

It was the typical gentrification story. Gays move in to a rundown neighborhood in a good location inmass and fix everything up. Now only top 20% incomes can afford the area.


You can sip wine while strolling between art galleries on High St these days.

High Street around campus is not the Short North.  The Short North is a mile south. The campus area of high street has been cleaned up a bit but I wouldn’t advise going in that area after the game.  Exit the stadium west and south to get back to your destination.  Do not go east of high street up by campus at any point.

High Street is basically Columbus maim street.

From south to north it goes through the following areas that have bars, breweries and restaurants throughout:

German Village

Downtown 

Arena District

Short North

Campus

Clintonville

Worthington
