I Wish I Was In Peoria, Pt. 1

[tgltyty]

liked the clip, its just that it all seemed to be mostly empty buildings. The video didn't seem to go with the song. The song was saying how great peoria is,which I agree with whole heartedly, but the video as i said before seemed to show only empty buildings

[Squarerig]

What about the wonderful girls of Peoria?They sung about them in former times so they must have been real tootsies!

[BIGsmooth1]

Peoria USED to be a badass town. It USED to be the whiskey capitol of the world. They USED to make PBRawr there. Even the downtown bar scene is about gone. Peoria sucks anymore. Douchebags, and dickheads. Everything is shut down now. You can do everything there is in one day. What a shithole place to live. Glad I`m outta there......for now.

[2PieceNaBiscut]

I can't tell if this is supposed to be a joke or not. Half the shops they show are shut down. This is a great video to keep you AWAY from Peoria.

LOL I'm so glad I'm out of that shit-hole!

Peoria, was once great. However, now it is a run down dump.

[saharra22469]

@lions4life1 IT's because of the rif-raff and trash they've allowed to move in and take over.

[tgltyty]

@lions4life1 if as you say it is now a run down dump, what are you doing to bring it back to the city you said was once great. If the city was once great, and is now a rundown dump , than I can only blame the people. IF you dont like what is becoming of Peoria, get involved and fix it. I lived in Peoria most of my life so I know of what I speak.

[saharra22469]

@bigb7874 GO!! We don't want you.

[kutzbill]

Funny, I left Peoria in 1989. I can reconize some views but some elude me. I miss the town, but I am glad I am in Colorado.

Thanks for the post.

[cars2024]

[peoriaillinoisan]

[pooptalkerlive]

if you live here pack your shit and run as far away from this crappy dump as fast as you can. go anywhere but here. these people are HICKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[saharra22469]

@pooptalkerlive LOL, you're so funny. I can't believe you think they're Hicks. I married a wealthy man. i've travelled and lived all over the world. Peoria ppl are the best in the world. Peoria used to be a nice, clean, beautiful town. I can tell from some other "Peoria" vidoes that city planners have torn out old, beautiful Historic homes, they have made Main st. look ugly. They have not perserved the pretty lagoon at Glen Oak Park, or Bradley Park.

[ibjeepin]

Detweiler Park, Powerton, Spalding(before becoming Notre Dame), Pepe Taco(I still have a glass from there LOL), Moss Avenue...you rock!! Awesome shots. Well done!

P.S. Did you get any shots of the old Pabst factory?

[we3are7art9]
