omg contra dancing in the commons was one of my favorite things!!! trannys collecting pop/soda cans, the tibet store, chanticleer, and random vampire and other role playing (larpers) peeps were my others! ! ! ! ! made ME feel better about myself! lmao
i grew up in ithaca from 8th grade till the end of highschool and ithaca is boring if youre not white.sorry to bring race into it but for real.ithaca is zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I'm surprised for such a liberal city there's not one gas station with a bio-diesel pump. I've had yet to hear of one. Other than that I love living in Ithaca. I love that it's a hippy-ish town. XD
I am pretty sure this was filmed during one of the many festivals that are held on the Ithaca Commons. People dont just start squaredancing at the drop of a hat, haha.
Ithaca NY is also the town where you find Cornell Univ. & Ithaca College~both well est. schools. There is a big varity that live in this area~ collegic, ethnic, lakeshore folks, international, bussiness people, many different types. But this is what makes this town unique. I grew up with in the area~and i enjoyed it here.
I grew up in Ithaca..It once was an interesting place to live. Something(s) really changed over the years. The video you are seeing here is the middle of the Commons which for all purposes is literally the center of the city. Great place to live...Crappy economy unless you work in the academic community. Spring and Fall are amazing but the winters will kick your ass.
Ithaca is full of lesbians, liberals, pot heads, college students who dont give a shit about anyone, i also lived there for 9 months and couldnt stand it.
i dont understand that ithacas 4 hours away from nyc. and thats the COMMONS that place isnt a good example of the surrounding area. that place is just a bunch of head shops. and SAMMY'S which is GREAT freakin pizza
i grew up there and it is not crazy or scary or a dumb ass place just cause hippies are there does not mean it is bad it means that we are the only place where they feel they can live with out u people screwing up there lives but looks like u did already =[
@bellagirl4 What's Ithaca REALLY like? Is Ithaca really as...well, for lack of better words at the moment..."peaceful" and "nice" as my friend leads me to think? I just want the opinion of someone who lives in Ithaca. ^_^
@michil93 hey this is bellagirl4 but on a different account, Ithaca is gorgeous. It has a low crime rate, it is peaceful and has some really cool areas. As I said before in my early post from 3 years ago.. yes there are hippies but personally I find that MUCH better than there being violent gangs (hippies are nice). I have lived in Ithaca my whole life, and I love it here. I suggest you visit Ithaca, it is a wonderful area with so much to experience!
@michil93 Peaceful, nice and pretty, and small though surpsingly metropolitan.. Though a bit eccentric, but that just adds to the charm, i would only caution against it if you prefer big citties.
Sad thing is, that isn't Ithaca fest, that's contra dancing every thursday in the summer (as opposed to square dancing). I think only people from Ithaca know the difference....
ithaca is awesome! You know how i know? BECAUSE I LIVE THERE
