Anyone?
If so, and you'd like any advice, I have some ideas to help your visit.
I don't think I will be able to make it.

FM, did you teach or go to school in Terre Haute? If so, what is Indiana State's reputation education wise (as well as athletically) in the state of Indiana?The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory. -
I'll be there. But it's a leave in the morning, return after the game trip -- so I don't think I'll need to know much about the area."...the Northern Iowa men's basketball team reached the ultimate highs before hitting a devastating low. Unexpected success, followed by unimaginable failure. And they owned it -- all of it -- for the world to see. Like men. Like leaders. Like champions -- in a way no tournament bracket could ever define."Comment

Neither, actually

I went to Indiana University and my wife worked in Terre Haute. For a long time we commuted from a small town that split the difference between Bloomington and Terre Haute. After I no longer had to drive to Bloomington on a daily basis, we moved to TH so she would be close to her work.
Their reputation is not that great, but that has to be taken with a grain of salt. I am sure there are hidden gems there. Terre Haute itself is a rough city. It has seen better days; however, I really, really liked the Hauteans (Hoe-shuns) when we lived there and I miss it a little bit.
The football stadium is atrocious, or so I have heard. The Hulman Center is a great basketball venue, especially when all I have done is see UNi win there.

well their women's b-ball team was ranked last year. they got a good women's soccer team. otherwise nothing to special, they have a good music school, but that's been gong downhill a bit recently.Oh, and let me make this perfectly clear to you people: you go to UNI, NOT IOWA. The Hawkeyes and their fans do not give a crap if you remain "true to them" or some stupid self-fulfulling bullcrap like that.-OTP

We are hitting the game. Heading to Indy to see family (fellow UNI grads) and then the crew is driving down for the game. Have not purchased tickets yet, so any advice there? I thought I would call the Indiana State ticket office tomorrow.Comment

I think we've had this discussion before and I can't recall the horrible smell, but packing house did come to mind.

50s?

The smell is due to:
Foundry
Wastewater treatment plant
International paper
Railworks (creosote plant)
All within a mile of each other. Concentrated on the WSW side. If the wind blows..just..right.....
Yep, it can be a bit tart.FMComment

Paper Mill is definitely a unique smell.Comment
