Roberts Stadium Evansville

I'm getting really tired of the old people in Evansville stealing away my future and my kids future.  The decisions and road blocks that they are throwing up to keep Evansville from growing keeps getting worse and the largest example is Roberts Stadium.  For some reason the elderly would rather set back and keep throwing wads of cash at the renovation of a failed stadium design than start over and start bringing in some real entertainment revenue. As it stands now we struggle to get any big name bands or events to come to Evansville due to our lackluster attempt at a stadium.  We have plenty of...

Aztar Evansville

Does anyone go to Casino Aztar anymore, at least people from Evansville?  It's such a run down second rate casino that I'm surprised they can continue to keep the doors open.  Already they've pulled every trick they know to bring River Boat Gambling to Evansville, IN but they fail at the important stuff.  Just staying docked doesn't make a Casino appealing, perhaps Aztar should be taking tips from other river boats. My wife and I recently went to French Lick's Resort and Casino and it was world's better than going to Aztar.  It was clean, friendly, and even though we didn't win a whole lot it was...

Vectren Evansville Wastes Fuel

I know I'm not alone with my frustration of fuel costs, electricity costs, and natural gas costs.  However, I can almost understand it in todays economy, but Vectren a local monopoly, should be doing it's part to help with conservation, especially when it effects the bottom line.  Too bad they don't monitor the Vectren service guys fuel consumption or downtime. My regular 9-5 job is positioned directly across from a Vectren substation and I have a big window to watch what goes on outside.  At minimum 3-4 times a week there is a Vectren service truck setting inside the fenced in area, just setting,...

Lloyd Expressway Construction

Tis the season, the time of year when road construction crews come out in droves to tear up our roads. I can almost deal with it, if it were done in an organized fashion, but this year so far has been ridiculous. One lane is closed on both the East and West bound sides making it a virtual standstill at places like the intersection of 41 and the intersection at Green River road. What angers me the most is that none of the barrels are even. The crews have the lane blocked off at different intervals, where sometimes the barrels hang out into one of the two open lanes. Expect slower traffic and an...

Evansville Public Transportation

I love public transportation, when I visit big cities it's all that I use, however in Evansville, I do not. I'm lucky enough to afford a vehicle, pay for expensive gas, and feel comfortable enough to navigate the Lloyd Expressway at rush hour. But just because I don't use it, does not mean it is not needed or better yet, need to be FIXED! My pet peeve of Evansville Public Transportation is that there appears to be a bus stop on every single block, at least on main street. Is it too much to ask that people walk a block or two so that they can get on the bus? It's actually a hazard, when you consider...
