I'm pretty sure it was the people living in the area complaining about the noise the cars made. It only happened once a year, would it have killed them to plan a day out if they didn't want to hear it?

I was pretty young when it happened and I'm not sure if I ever went, but I know my parents did at some point and they said it was a blast. It's a shame it ended.

Lives downtown yet complains about the noise. GFY!!!!! I went to the Molson Indy back in 2004 I think with pit passes. It was epicly awesome. I liked the SCCA type car races even better than the Indy itself. Went all 3 days and had an awkward car boner the whole time.

Lol, nothing's changed... the same fucking idiots complain about the BC Place lights ALL the time.

I absolutely can't stand people who move to the city and complain about light and noise. Shut the fuck up and move to a house in the boonies then where your closest neighbor is 2km away and it's totally dark at night. It's not like you didn't know those types of things exist in Downtown, IMO every downtown core has its fair share of "disruptions" that any normal person can eventually tune out...

...personally my "nostalgia" is missing a Vancouver where people weren't so entitled and didn't bitch and moan about every little insignificant thing that pervades their illusions of a happy life

I remember when I was young, people obeyed the crosswalk signal. When the sign changed to don't walk, folks waited until the next light change.

I didn't realize that Motorweek was uploading old shows. Typically you had to find it through reuploads from random accounts (with included white noise and TRACKING flashing on the screen)

There's a bunch but here's some random clips

It's official. Netflix will be the home of a long-rumoured Full House reunion, followed by a spinoff of the beloved 1990s sitcom that will be called Fuller House.

John Stamos, who played Uncle Jesse on the original ABC series, broke the news Monday night on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

Netflix also confirmed details in a news release.

"We've been working on this for many, many years," Stamos told the late-night host. "It starts as a reunion and then spins off into this — like a spinoff," the actor explained.
Plot is 'sort of a reversal'

The original sitcom centred on the foibles of three grown men who were living together in San Francisco to raise three little girls.

Fuller House picks up with grown-up sisters Stephanie (Jodie Sweetin) and D.J. Tanner (Candice Cameron-Bure) two decades later.

But this time, D.J. is a recently widowed pregnant mother of two.

Andrea Barber will reprise her role as the annoying but beloved family friend Kimmy Gibbler.

Like the original, the three women move in together to help raise D.J's kids — a similar plot to the original when D.J.'s and Stephanie's dad, Danny Tanner, played by Bob Saget, invite Uncle Jesse and Uncle Joey, played by Dave Coulier, to move in with him.

"It's sort of a reversal," described Stamos, who is producing the 13-episode series, and will guest star as the hair-obsessed Uncle Jesse.

Talks are underway to have Saget, Coulier and other original stars, such as Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, who alternated in the role of Michelle, the youngest of the three Tanner children, and Lori Loughlin, who played Uncle Jesse's wife, make guest appearances.

"We're going to try and to get everybody in the first hour special." said Stamos, "and then it'll go into the spinoff."

Created by original Full House creator Jeff Franklin, Fuller House will premiere on Netflix in 2016.

Full House attracted a loyal legion of fans, many of whom grew up with the comedy over its eight seasons.

A total of 192 episodes aired during its run from 1987 to 1995 on ABC in the U.S.

"The love you saw on the show was real," executive producers Robert L. Boyett, Thomas L. Miller and Jeff Franklin said in a joint statement.

"The cast has remained a loving family off screen all these years. We are as excited as our fans to finally bring Full House back to life."

Fuller House is just the latest in string of television reboots.

Coach, The Muppet Show and Inspector Gadget are all being developed for a return to the small-screen as networks attempt to bank on viewers' nostalgia.

Cult crime drama Twin Peaks is being revived for Showtime, even after co-creator David Lynch dropped out of the project.

ABC is said to be working on a TV adaptation of John Hughes's Uncle Buck and Disney is revisiting the cartoon DuckTales.

X-Files fans rejoiced upon learning the popular paranormal drama is making a come back after 13 years off the air.

When asked about the sheer volume of '90s TV remakes, X-Files creator Chris Carter told The Daily Beast even he was skeptical.

"The cynical part of me says this is programming by feather duster," said Carter.

"The other part of me says that if something is good, that doesn't necessarily mean its over. It's not just sitting on the shelf gathering dust, it's actually accruing value."

A few summers ago I helped the old lady down the street pick out all the weeds from her front yard and on the floor of her shed she had a few cans of Woodward's branded motor oil. Woodward's was before my time but I'm kinda fascinated by its history and it was cool to see stuff like that lying around.

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned already but did anyone else see the Eaton's lettering at Lansdowne Mall years after it closed? I'm not sure if it remained after the Target overhaul but it was definitely there when it was a Zellers. I only just barely remember Eaton's so it was kinda weird seeing the outline of the letters there that long afterward. On a related note I'm pretty sure we still have some Eaton's clothes hangers in our closet.

I'm not sure what it is but failed department stores really interest me. Maybe it's just how physically large they can be that makes me interested in how they fail. I don't know, it's just a weird obsession of mine.

^ When did Eaton's close down? I vaguely remember the name so I'm guessing in the 90's?
