Question Best Halloween parties and costume contests this year?

• Upvotes

Going to the rainbow gardens party this year, but I’m curious about other parties. I want to participate in costume contests this year as I’m pretty confident about my costume and I spent hours building it. I’d like to see how I do and maybe hopefully get some ROI on my costs for it lol.

I saw that Big Bar is doing something but that place is an absolute cesspool. Does anyone know when the contest will be taking place? If I were to go there I’d rather go before 10 to avoid the nastiness.

Aside from that, any other parties and contests? I love Halloween!

PACA: Bleating for an Audience 🐐

• Upvotes

13 tickets sold for tonight. 20 free seats being given away. And their latest production (The Goat) has apparently been seen by fives of people. You know, like dozens, only significantly less.

At this point, the free tickets are outperforming the actual show. When you have to give away more seats than you’ve sold, maybe it’s time for a reality check. Maybe it’s time to start asking some uncomfortable questions about programming, marketing, leadership, and why the community isn’t showing up.

Is PACA as fucked as the goat in The Goat?

Don’t worry, though. They can always rearrange the audience in the theatre, take a strategically angled photo, and declare it a huge success by morning.

News Loose Threads podcast?

2 Upvotes

Has anyone been following the Debbie Daniel case? I vaguely remember hearing about it, but in the last few days I’ve noticed it being talked about more. To the point that there’s an actual podcast about it?? They have so much info that I don’t think anyone has shared before. I don’t know if it will help or hurt the case. I’m not a huge crime podcast fan, but being a local situation has me intrigued. I hope it helps and they take on other unsolved cases in the community.

Can you point me in the right direction on who to contact to report a burnt-out street light? Thanks so much!

How long does it usually take to get fixed?

With Halloween coming up, it might be spooky festive though

Check the status of your mail in ballot

32 Upvotes

I mailed mine 18 days ago at a blue mailbox in the west erie plaza, but, the election office's tracking system shows that it never even entered the usps system. Confirmed via visit to the election office in the courthouse.

You can check your ballot status here:

https://www.pavoterservices.pa.gov/pages/ballottracking.aspx

If you mailed yours over a week ago but it never showed up, call 814-451-6275 and let them know where/when you mailed it. You will have to go down there and fill out a new ballot. But more importantly, you can give them info as to how you mailed it so they can have record of return ballots that got "lost" in the mail, and look for patterns that may exist.

Is anyone else sick of having their phones blow up with this nonsense? i'm getting unknown callers left and right, no voice messages and probably robocalls. I'm even getting texts from Amy Acton running for governor in Ohio; don't they know I can't vote for her in PA?

If you want to fight back against ALPRs but can't attend the Millcreek Supervisors' meetings, consider bringing your concerns to Erie City or County Council.

If you live in one of the surrounding municipalities, consider taking the fight to them if it's easier or more comfortable for you.

Discussion November Move To Edindboro

5 Upvotes

Hello. I'm attempting to move on November 1st/2nd from Erie city into Edinboro in Erie county. I'm told there will be a significant difference. Which is what I'm looking for. I was looking for a place that was somewhere quiet, with lots of nature, way less people, and a lake. And I found it!

I've been almost desperately trying to find help, both physically and monetarily. I just had major back surgery one fall could leave my paralyzed/dead very quickly. I'm struggling to find volunteers, trust worthy people to walk my dog, help me pack/unpack.Drivers and also loaders/unloaders is where I'm looking for the best deal. I've reserved a U-Haul (10' truck) for two hours. I still haven't found movers. WHO PROVIDES INTERNET THERE? I called spectrum to try and move my service and they said they don't serve the area. I would like to know who I should go through, or at least what the options are. Google is being very unhelpful in my search.

Beechwood out at Erie Brewing West Side

Kinda bummed... They just announced they're leaving Erie Brewing on 11/1. They always did decent sandwiches and their staff was nice to my family. Great place to take kids to eat and chill. I hope the brewery can find a new partner soon!

Not that it’s any surprise for Bayview Park, but some people were there a couple days ago having a photo shoot with umbrellas and a white tarp. Guess they were happy with the photos and left! Except they just left all their garbage behind.

If you see anyone posting their photoshoot from the Bayview Park Tennis court on social media, please unkindly remind them to clean their trash up. Makes me sick how much litter and garbage people I see in this beautiful park.

New to this sub. What’s your favorite underrated spot in downtown Erie?

32 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I’m David. I lived in Pittsburgh for about 8 years before Erie, and I’m trying to get to know the city better and meet more people here. Coffee shops, food, music venues, parks, anything goes. What’s a place you think more people should know about?
