    I very much do, I was very sad last time I visited SB to see that it was gone, though I feel I hadn’t seen it on a few of my previous trips, but now they’re building something where it used to be and it clicked that. “didn’t there used to be someone else iconic there? Oh yeah, Santa!”. Also pea soup Anderson’s is closing, and that’s… Meh. As long as the palace survives I’m a happy SB tourist.

    I remember people diving off the street lights into the underpasses, and the airport being so flooded that water was piling up behind the fence, the CHAIN LINK fence at the Goleta airport during El nino in the late 90s.

    My home town was not known for anything tourist, so that’ll narrow the list down a bit.

      Oh man, I loved that year. There was a culvert that want under a bridge between Hillsboro and Cannon Green that normally is empty. That year our was almost full. My friends and I tied a route around or waists and jumped in the culvert of waste water. It ran so fast that we were able to water ski

      Man, fairview and Hollister was flooded then. You couldn’t drive through it then. I was not into the pirate BBS scene back then with a good friend that ended up dying by getting hit by a train in the mid 2000’s

      You every jump off of the tree swing in the bluffs? The one that broke the back of one of the DP teachers?
