Are you guys serious? Why is everyone acting like they've never seen an eclipse before? We had one in Bloomington in 2017 and nobody cared. Stop encouraging more people to come to Bloomington for this. Because of all the marketing now we're having to worry about strangers showing up and parking on our lawns. The police in Ellettsville are saying we should be proactive and charge for parking. But if someone gets hurt on your property, you're screwed. It may be great for the Bloomington city leaders who like to pretend Bloomington is the "big city", but it's supposedly going to obstruct the roadways. I'm getting distinct vibes that they'll just overlook it for the cash instead of making people mind the law. It's the same way they handle students. Any complaints by "townies" will probably be ignored. I predict a fight or two.
@@sarahspindler2914 I saw the ring of fire with my own 2 eye's. it was a beautiful thing. I promise to never look at the sun again. I was lucky this time
We drove to Bloomington from Orlando, FL. You all come to my city all the time for tourism and make life harder for the locals so consider your debts paid after this. 😂 In all seriousness though, I absolutely enjoyed my time there and it was the most stunning natural setting for the total eclipse. Everyone there was so kind and it was bonus that hardly anyone else traveled to your city for the eclipse. It was calm, peaceful, uncrowded, and there was zero traffic. That is exactly what I was hoping for. Really though, thank you so very much for making this once in a lifetime otherworldly experience so special! I cried during totality.
@@jennifermiller4486 So happy you enjoyed yourselves in our little *Safe n civil* city. Please come again and bring a friend or three. Oh yea and your money. lots n lots of Money LOL
Perhaps we'll get lucky with 2 straight days of severe thunderstorms. Yea. not a chance right. Not when Money is too be made
I hope you're right. They've managed to turn a beautiful natural event into an ordeal for the locals. And they seem quite happy to do it.
@@grumpycouch6403 They can't wait to see us all being driven nuts and coming unglued. it's what they pray for in this little safe n civil city

they don't allow Truth to be written
Bloomington wasn't in the path of totality in 2017, but it was this time, which is why so many people were expected.
