I remember being on the first floor of that place and watching the dance floor bounce up and down above me.

Lefty's in the Strip.
First and only time I stopped in - bartender was sleeping in a recliner behind the bar. There was another customer drinking a beer at the bar, I assume a regular, who walked back and woke the guy up.

The sidewalk on the block on Penn around the convention center is full of furries... and that's about it.

With the advancement of technology, and the prevalence of cell phones, if it doesn't already exist, I'm sure it would be entirely possible to create an app that guides you directly to your seat. Or to be able to install scanners all over the place where you scan your ticket, and it tells you which way to go.

I don't think the URA does anything outside of the City, that's why I doubted it.

It's less of an issue now with the netting but they did used to run down when a ball or bat went into the stands and make sure the person was ok and signal to what i assume was some sort of medical team. Plus break up fights between drunk idiots. So I guess it is kind of security.

Just because you didn't need help doesn't mean lots of others don't.

I mean, Housing First isn't based on hearsay, it's based on evidence. The Linear model is also evidence based and both have drawbacks. I don't think one can accurately state that housing first flat out doesn't work. (INB4 Cicero house study, so poorly conducted I can't handle it)
I reckon the greatest hurdle is funding. These programs cost a shit load of money, and our leaders choose to spend it on other things, same as any funding issue. But I'll hear you out on the greatest hurdle you see in the process

Yep, hate to shit on someone's job, but I've been to 2 NFL games, a handful of baseball games across varying leagues, and 2 concerts at NFL stadiums recently, and not once did I need to ask for help to figure out where to go. Should really be a job that gets rolled into the security team's duties for the rare occasion it's needed. All the ushers did was slow me down by checking tickets (really not necessary - if you're in my seat, you better believe I'm getting security to move you) and walking too slow when escorting other people.

So I went to Meta/Facebook, a corporation I absolutely trust to maintain my privacy, to let everyone know about it, and also message my private affairs to all my closest family.

That is 100% my experience as well. Worked restaurant/bar jobs down there and the anthrocon crowd was consistently among the very best tipping and most polite of any guests we would have throughout the year. They are also just a lot of fun out on the street and very approachable.

Gooski's was where all the cool punks hung out when I first moved to Pittsburgh, but I've heard through the grapevine that it's lately become popular with the wrong kind of skinheads.

Is this going to be like the cashier issue at fast food restaurants that's leading to automated kiosks being installed? There are signs all over the park, and I can find my own seat. I don't need an employee to demand to see my ticket, and simply point to where my seat is when I can already find it without their help.

Makes sense on the liquor license. Imagine if all of SouthSide just took the party to the casino at 2AM.
Interesting about F&B.
Thank you for the insight.

Any fun event that brings a lot of people together ends up leading to some sex
The Olympics for example.
