Native Clevelander and I agree with everything in this thread from OP to Whiskerz.

I lived in University Heights for a while.
Cleveland mostly sucks, but there are worse areas to live in this country. |

Is this the thread where we learn how the Cleveland Steamer is performed ?

I came up in Cleveland. Lived on E60 off Sinclair for a while, and stayed at lots of spots in between and into the west side. Spent my time as a little kid in the southeast suburbs. It's in my DNA and always will be. They call me "216" at work.

I made deliveries to East Cleveland for a company outside of Boardman OH 2 days a week and in Youngstown OH 2 other days.
East Cleveland is/was a horrible shithole but, what's funny is the East Cleveland guys were afraid of Youngstown. "You deliver in Youngstown!! Fuck that! You could never get my black ass in that place!!" My buddy got robbed 3 times in Cleveland and after I had to pull my gun on a bunch of hood rats that tried to corner me in an alley, I called the boss/owner and quit on the spot. Fuck that shithole, I'll never go back! |

Native Clevelander here, grew up in PARMA! Now an expat in VA
Was at the RedRight88 game and spent many a weekend in the flats in the 80s. And I hated that commercial. |

Our first trip into cleveland with our youngest was fun.
"Daddy, why are there a bunch of random coats bunched together on the ground?" That was the day she learned about homeless people. |

I can still hear that jingle. Too bad I'm a day late to share it.
Worked in East Cleveland for a couple years. The mailman told me if I ever worked late to not bother stopping for red lights on my way out. We had a fenced in parking lot that was patrolled by security and still had people breaking car windows and stealing stuff. Once I was chatting with my crew in my office and a police officer walked past. This was very unusual, since we were in a "secure" part of the building (electronic lock on the only door in, no other access). I got up and asked him if I could help him. He said "no" and left. Turns out the ECPD were doing a drug bust a block away and had a runner. Guy ran past our lot security, through our front door security and hid somewhere in the building. I like to think he bluffed his way onto the payroll. He'd fit right in. Probably CTO at this point. And mandatory in any Cleveland thread: HASTILY MADE CLEVELAND TOURISM VIDEO |

East Cleveland is actually pretty cool to drive through. Abandoned overgrown blocks, old factories, and mansions look pretty wiled in the summer.

At the time I was in college and working down in The Flats. I’d drive home, into East Cleveland at 3:00am most nights. Nothing bad ever happened but lots of people tried to sell me drugs. |

I remember people chasing down your car wanting to sell you Crack. A cop told me even if you don't smoke Crack you better buy some if they catch you boxed in at a light. |

Quoted: Mustard on Roastbeef sandwiches? View Quote No? I love roast beef sammiches with sauerkraut on pumpernickel with mustard, mayo (or Russian), with a kosher dill spear. Whenever I hear Cleveland, I think The Drew Carey Show - Cleveland Rocks -FULL- Theme |

Cleveland ain't all bad.
Tailgating in the muni-lots before a Browns game is pretty awesome compared to some other stadiums. Also, the strip of bars right by the stadium reminds me of Wrigleyville. |

Spent a lot of time in downtown Cleveland. Still do. There is a lot of great places to eat. A lot of ethnic food. Cleveland is no worse than most major cities. Some of you need to get out more.

When I was a cop in Youngstown in the 1990s (a couple of years we were competing with DC on the murder rate), the Bloods and Crips tried to move in on the Youngstown gang banger drug trade. A few executions later, the Bloods and Crips left. If the Youngstown gang bangers didn't do it, the Youngstown mob would have. In a documentary about the Yougstown mob, mobsters from Cleveland and Pittsburgh interviewed said that Youngstown racketeers were crazy and you don't go in there uninvited. |

Quoted: Bedford is turning into ghetto, Randall mall is gone and now it's a huge Amazon facility. Unfortunately Kucinich is still lurking about, somewhere .
