circlingvultures Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 I used to work at that Walgreens. Parking lot is big enough it isn't really easy to run into. Matt I trust you will stay on top of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
circlingvultures Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Also I would love it if a car ran into that new HUGE eyeglasses place on NF blvd and Sheridan. They tore down the gas station that was in Buffalo '66 for 1 scene for that ugly building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcm1610 Posted October 13, 2011 Author Share Posted October 13, 2011 Haha oh I'm on it. So is gawker.com! http://gawker.com/5849254/buffalo-hit-by-epidemic-of-people-crashing-into-buildings mysteries new york upstate cars accidents buffalo By Adrian Chen Oct 12, 2011 6:26 PM Buffalo Hit by Epidemic of People Crashing Into Buildings Something is rotten in the state of New York. Specifically, upstate. People in the Buffalo area keep crashing their cars into buildings, and nobody can explain it. According to a tally by local news station WVIB, about 17 cars have pummeled into storefronts since August. They even built a handy map and gallery to keep track of all of them. Amherst, NY, has started to enact regulations that would require barriers in front of restaurants to protect from careening cars. Some of the crashes have been tragic, like when two young men were killed when a car smashed into a grocery store last Saturday, probably due to speeding. Others are pretty harmless, with a lot of people accidentally stepping on the gas instead of the brakes, like when this senior citizen drove through the window of a Wendy's. Public radio station WBFO talked to a couple experts in storefront crashes (they exist), who confirmed the spate was out of the ordinary. Locals are clearly a little freaked out. We've been getting nearly-daily email updates from residents on the ever-increasing number of crashes; one commenter on Buffalo's local Topix forum offers darkly, "Something is suspect about these scenarios and reasons…" ---------- My favorite part is that one of the tags for the story is "mysteries" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kriss Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 17 is a bizarrely high amount for such a concentrated area within such a short amount of time. Seriously stoked I have a huge metal fence in front of my house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
