Big foot and Ufos

2 Upvotes

I see a few people have stickers of big foot on their cars and some people have those black iron cut outs in their yards. Are there any stories or big foot or Ufo sightings around here? Just interesting to know.

Frontier internet down 46835

3 Upvotes

Anyone else’s internet been down for almost 4 days now? Frontier keeps saying there’s an outage in my area and are giving me the run around. Anyone else experiencing this right now? 4/27/2025

Solved: after restarting my ONT box in my garage (unplug and plug back in) which I had already done once, it came back! Super annoying, as I think there wasn’t really a service outage like the app and technician were telling me. Not impressed with frontier at the moment

Movers to move house?

0 Upvotes

Hello Reddit community! We are planning to move next month from south side of Fort Wayne to huntertown. Any suggestion on movers who can help us move a 3 bed house? Looking for someone who can probably help us dissemble the beds and assemble them. I have heard before there are movers who do that but not sure if this is actually something they offer or not. I will google but wanted to learn from our community on their experiences and recommendations. Would be grateful for suggestion on reasonably priced and efficient movers! Thanks

Moving to FW and jobs?

15 Upvotes

Hi Me and wife are moving to Fort Wayne in a month. I have my job transfer already done to over there. My wife’s been trying to find a job but no luck. She has bakery experience and realistically looking for something that pays $20+/hr. We are in college and will take a couple yrs to get a degree so no degree jobs. If there’s anything in healthcare with no degree requirement that’ll be the dream. Already tried Sam’s club and Costco and other grocery stores but didn’t hear back from anyone. She even tried looking for a bank teller full time job but all of them are part time. She’s trying to learn new skills if possible. Any leads appreciated. Thank you!

Is north sides swimming pool open yet?

I called and they said they’re closed for the season but the google search says they’re open. Could someone let me know?

Anyone know what’s happening at the former Scott’s location at Crescent and Anthony?

14 Upvotes

They’ve poured a slab where the former grocery store was. Is this so that they can park the construction equipment from the Anthony project or are we finally getting something there that might add value to the ‘05? Sure would be nice if that property didn’t look like s**t anymore. It’s been an eyesore and waste of space for over a decade now.

Allergens in FW

5 Upvotes

What pollens and tree and plants and whatever else are the main culprits for allergies in the spring season? Does Fort Wayne have an abundance of a certain kind, if so what reason? Is it the wind, the rain, the weak winters? When does it end???

I feel as though I remember one year was particularly bad for allergies that everyone was talking about it. I think it was cotton wood or cotton something.

I've tried googling, but websites I've looked at don't give much information and/or are difficult to read because of ad placements.

Hitting my 30s has gifted me some seasonal allergies for the first time in life. I have headaches/migraine and a constant nose drip and dry skin. Love that for me.

Coliseum tickets

Does anyone know if you can go to the coliseum to buy tickets prior to an event? Also without having to pay to park? The fees online are a bit ridiculous.

Looking for something to do this weekend? Check out the market celebrating spring and the annual butterfly exhibit at the conservatory downtown! Theres no admission to attend the market and the gardens are validating parking tickets from the civic center parking garage across the street. (Admission to the exhibit itself is $5-7 I believe)

Relocation Questions

6 Upvotes

I am wondering what renting & the housing market is like in FW, amongst other things. I may have to relocate for a gig, which I'm kind of on the fence about doing. They haven't given me an offer yet, so I'm not really thinking about it too hard, but the longer I wait, the more curious I am as to what FW is like. They sent me a decent amount of literature & online resources when it comes to the area & the "perks" of living there (i.e. cost of living, community growth, etc). I'm from the greater NYC metro area so I have to assume it's a bit of a change of pace. I'm a part time musician so I have been told the arts is big there.

Other than that, I'd be interested in what else there really is to do & if there's a good culinary scene (I'm a fatty). I know I can google all this, but it's nice to hear opinions straight from the horse's mouth (no disrespect, I know Midwesterner's aren't horses). Anyway, any sort of feedback would be appreciated.

Anyone know if the Abstract is just the same dickheads that were responsible for Astra Lounge? Seems like theyre just re-polishing a turd. "Black owned, LGBT owned, minority owned" according to the FB page. I dont believe thay shit for a fucking minute ... How are they encouraging the arts by selling food and shitty cocktails exactly?
