Ive lived here my whole life and am a big fan of the campus. Its always very lively and up beat and has that classic college feel. It is beautiful too. I love how youll drive by a really ornate and rustic old building that reminds of you of the tradition and then a few blocks down youll drive by a modern building with contemporary style that leaves you awe struck. The stadium is essentially modern and traditional combined too. lol
@backagain20101: Bill Ayers is not at UIUC. He *was* at UIC---University of Illinois at Chicago---but has since retired and been denied emeritus status.
@Grylloidea You moved here? Not to burst your bubble or anything but I've lived here for 34 years in Illinois specifically. Although all of Illinois is not like Chicago and burbs; I lived in the burbs of Chicago and to me Sodom and Gomorrah is respectable compared to Chicago and Springfield. Look up the county in Chicago; COOK COUNTY; I call it Hell Hole. I guess maybe no matter where you live you have positives and negatives, but Illinois would be the last place I would move to; Good Luck.
@ragingmonkey909 I tried to live like people like you peeing and various things as such in the State of Illinois. I feel it's a big CLUB and I'm not in it. Although various things like you do is more "acceptable" in other countries as I've looked up. This ILLINOIS STATE OF is very CLUBISH. Very much a click like high-school was; and I wasn't accepted there either which has caused me great sorrow and to take a disliking to Illinois and America for various reasons. I suppose Life is Unfair!
Very enjoyable video and i wished more people would do the same thing with different towns around America. Do you plan on doing any around the outskirts of Camurbana or maybe danville? I'm planning on relocating. I'm in Los Angeles and its an overcrowded cesspool here and too expensive.
@trunk516 I live in Illinois and although your remark was 4 months ago; much of America is a cesspool but Chicago specifically; the county is COOK COUNTY. Burning in Hell over there; I'm glad I got the fuck out there. I should have left 16 years ago.
i live here and the only problem is that the cops will get you for anything they can. they might even run a fuckin k-9 unit around your car so be careful
wooooootttttt go illini i was there a a couple weeks ago my brother might be going there to bad he hates football cause hes good he could takes them so far
man im italian and im planning to do atmospheric sciences at ui..do u recommend me this school?do you get bored on living to urbana?do u think that a school from chicagoland is better?i dont know shit i live so far away the choice is damn hard to make
I'm a soon-to-be Junior in High School...but i plan to major in Business. 42 people from my high school went to UIUC this year...it's pretty popular around here!
When I first saw this I thought it was going to be boring.....I was wrong. Great idea and brought back memories. It's been a while since I was there early 80's but our place to go after the bars was Taco Johns on Green (been gone a while now). They made their own fries with the Potato Ole seasoning. Either that or Pizza by the slice. Thanks for the trip back......and great music.
you would be going to Chicago every weekend then, after I left I would go back and party with friends still there but that got old, have not been back in a few years
ossito, maybe your problem was that you didn't make any friends, then. I get bored here occasionally, I'll admit, but you can't really act like there's nothing to do. It's a college town, there's ALWAYS something to do.
didnt make friends, rofl, entire southside of 12th floor in FAR, few people from 9th floor, bunch of people from the 6-pack & ISR, men & women, still going strong our bonds are still tight, we get together often, 29 e. john st, 5th & white, 4th & Healey, Gammas, Omega Delta, alpha psi, cant go to any club or bar in city w/o running into someone, "no friends", still rofl, hell i probably know you through one of my "friends"
You say that now, but just wait. I lived there my whole life and then moved. I appreciate Champaign more than ever now. There's not even a fucking Starbucks here.
6th and Green for me.....I used to work at the White Hen Pantry on the corner in 1993. Get a good burger at Murphy's across the street or go up 6th to R and R's Sports Grill (RIP) and get a pound of fries and 6 small cheesburgers for $6.99.
It's nice to drive through campus without worrying about traffic or pedestrians! Thanks for uploading.
