Some big changes to the Metro Transit routes are in the works. Read about them here: http://www.cbc.ca/m/news/canada/nova-scotia/halifax-transit-reveals-unprecedented-overhaul-of-bus-system-1.2960455.
Not our infamous 80! What will we joke about? The 8? Not quite the same ring to it 😦
Hopefully these changes do make the whole system better but come on, keep the number 80 – part of our Sacktown heritage, yo!
I think everyone has a good 80 story from over the years. Do you have one? Please post it up!
Need a new nickname. What about the “constantly late #8”?
So is half of Beaver Bank. Apparently those who live north of Kinsac don’t matter!!
threw up on it once
Beauty!
Drunk guy was standing at the back (despite there only being 6 or 7 ppl on the bus). He kept smashing his head into the post until he knocked himself out. He fell back into a seat and no one did anything. I eventually got off and he was still out like a light.
It was a party bus for concerts in the 80’s. I remember going to see Triumph. Two brothers passed around a joint the size of a cucumber. Wrapped it in loose leaf. The paper burned faster than the weed.
Good times going to and from Citadels games with flags, stuffed dogs, etc. Pretending to beat the crap out of each other at the bus stop. lol
Going to a Loverboy Concert had to piss so bad at a stop in Bedford stood at the back door and pissed while everyone on bus chanted my name. Hilarious!!
So how is that going to work? Us here in Sackville will have to transfer when we get somewhere to go to downtown? How stupid is that?
