]]> Comment on Dyngus Day Parade Benefit by Mark http://buffalocentralterminal.org/2008/02/dyngus-day-parade-benefit/#comment-1337 Mark Tue, 25 Mar 2008 05:16:35 +0000 http://buffalocentralterminal.org/2008/02/dyngus-day-parade-benefit/#comment-1337 I just wanted to leave a quick note. I grew up nearby but the Terminal had closed 2 years before I was born, so I never saw it in action. Tonight was my first time being inside and it was great to see the place alive - the streets were jammed with cars, people everywhere and music playing! However, by 8pm when I showed up, there was already no more beer, and what seemed like thousands of people were leaving as I walked in. I walked in and there was no one to take my $10 nor did I know if there was any food left. I was hoping to pay my admission and pay per beer to help the place out while having a great time. Even if there was a seperate purchase for all-you-can-drink and a greater supply, it could have worked out well. Instead, I stayed for an hour and then left, only able to pay a few dollars to one of the vendors inside for candy. Hopefully next year you can capitalize greater on the massive number of people that want to be here. There are tons of people my age without any ties to the neighborhood or Polish culture that will come out just for a good party in such a great location. With a bit more local promotion and factor in some beer sales, it could be a fantastic revenue generator. Thanks for your efforts in cleaning it up so far! I just wanted to leave a quick note.

The UB recast IS bronze, but also cost $40k. I'm not sure which plastic buffalo you speak of. We have no buffalo at all at the terminal. The buffalo was never actually bronze, it was plaster.

Then when some money was raised a new bronze one could be cast. I agree, maybe there are some local artists that could make a new mold with UB’s permission and atleast we would have the mold.

KORPS was way better then this sorry fucking herion addicted excuse for a "writer". He went by two pathetic names... DFEK/ DFECT and FIEN after his first arrest in 06 he spent time in jail simply because he couldn't have anyone bail him out....got off with a cop out probation sentence and put in a halfway house. Whoever reads this...please..know that you should be chargig this individual with the YEARS (6 plus) of past graffiti damage to the entire city of buffalo. He has now gotten off twice with no direct ties to the actual scribbling and poorly painted names he has gone by for years...LT. Lunetta...Pamela Beal?? Any of you... lets these two individuals know that the person they have now should be charged with much much more. This problem is not ending..and more needs to be done to the people we do catch. I would love to see him take ALL the responsibility for ALL his actions. To clear a few things up..and to hopefuly bring some justice..Chris Fargo was NOT the graffiti Vandal KORPS.

Taggers are losers that need to grow up instead of making up names to scrawl all over the city, creating eyesores. If you want to be a wall artist study Diego Rivera instead of reverting back to the habits you had as a toddler. Hopefully you're not wetting the bed too.
