So yeah this is actually a well know scam. Seattle doesn't actually exist, it's just somewhere scammers tell you to go so they can mug you.

What people are told is the exist to the Seattle "airport" is just a back alley in Baltimore.

Anyway everyone else in this thread is apparently in on this scam. Wouldn't trust 'em.

Have a nice time though!

Pike Place Market is a giant tourist trap, go if you want but it's like a giant hippy flea market where someone also throws fish at you

Space Needle is overrated, don't waste your money. The Chihuly Garden & Glass exhibit by it is loving rad though

Stay the gently caress away from 3rd Ave, lots of drugs and people get shot and stabbed a lot.

Pioneer Square has a bunch to do from shops to drinking, can get sketch at night though so be aware

Capitol Hill is super gay and tons of bars and clubs, it can be fun if you go with people. Julia's on Broadway puts on really well done drag shows. Also the gay bars pour some strong as hell drinks

MoPop (Museum of Pop Culture) is kinda cool, haven't been there in some time

U District (where UW is obviously) skews younger and is pretty busy with lots to do also

Be aware Seattle is expensive, so be ready to pay a bit unless you come from a big city already

I'm in Seattle right now. Get Humbow at Mee-Sum pastry in Pike Place. If you want good coffee, Lighthouse Roasters up by the zoo is my recommendation.

You can see the actual Black Hole Sun from the Soundgarden song. It's in Volunteer Park on Capitol Hill. If you make it up there check out the water tower, the Asian Art Museum (I think that's still suggested donation, may have changed) and the conservatory.

Check out the Ballard locks, especially if you have kids. They find it fascinating. A couple blocks away on the Magnolia side is Dirty Couch Brewing. They have good stuff- a lot of weird and experimental brews. Many sours.

Down the way from Dirty Couch is Figurehead Brewing and Fisherman's terminal. Across the tracks from that is the Boxcar, an authentic old Seattle dive.

I haven't been there for 20 years but when I did used to go I would go down to the waterfront, that famous Pike Place Market where they throw fish and poo poo but that whole area is full of little weirdo shops and stuff. I don't know if it's been taken up with just touristy poo poo totally, it wasn't back then.

when I was in kindergarten, every recess they would have us line up by the door and wait as a couple of the staff went and patrolled the yard for hypodermics that junkies would throw over the fence

they showed us what they look like and told us to not touch them or that we would catch diseases and die

when i was a kid playing with toys and poo poo people would ask why id always squat over the ground instead of sitting

Not sure if it's still.there or what the hell it even looks like anymore if it still exists but the most fun I've ever had at a concert was at the Graceland in Seattle there. Bonus, they have a shitload of 45's hanging from the ceiling that you can totally grab by jumping high enough.

I don't mean to imply it's not some good wholesome fun, just that it's already been a tourist trap for p much as long as most goons have been alive. I'm sure it's gotten worse but it was already selling cheap snakes and turtles stuff with beans in 2000.

Bird is the word.
Ive been in Seattle for the last 4 years, its by far the most expensive place Ive been. The crap microstudio I lived in out in Kirkland was like over $1000/month, but at least the food and local brews tend to be decent. If you want a free show, take the bus that runs through the industrial distric, almost always a stabbing a day!

Those stupid apartments are a scam and have been shown to be the most expensive rental places per square foot and we should give everyone who lived in them 5000$ and the buildings should all be burnt to the ground.

Seattle is a pretty place, I like it. There was an absolutely amazing Indian buffet place near Pike Market, however since Covid it is no longer a buffet and is a pricier sit down menu, but with awesome food still.

I'm from Chicago so I'm used to crazy and weird, but it definitely is a strange atmosphere at night. The homeless and beggars are on a different level.
