We're Worried About the "Bums on Ice" Show

In an attempt to reassemble New York City piece-by-piece, Seattle's Parks and Recreation department is shopping around the idea to put in a downtown ice-skating rink next winter. Park officials plan to place the (presumably) tourist-filled skating rink to take over in Pioneer Square's Occidental Square Park. In theory, it sounds like a good idea. (What recession?) But where will all the bums go who currently claim the park? Should we have them strap on some hockey skates and give 'em a go at hockey greatness with a bum-rush hockey league? Or maybe a broomball league?

Don't you know that the ice makes the perfect placing for shooting up!? Lol

True. Very true. Perhaps it's an incentive to leave Belltown.

I really want a public ice park not in Shoreline(ish).

But is that area big enough?


Troy, can't you just go to seattle center? can't be any worse than shoreline
