Get on Board we’re going to destroy the MTA.

OK!
Hey have you ever wondered how not to jump off a bridge? This guy shows you exactly what not to do. I mean, aside from the questionable choice of doing this on a whim, his form is terrible. Gotta tuck those arms in and go straight down, not spin, flop, and hope you don’t break some bones and die. Clearly this man has never been to the old RR bridge in the Delaware Water Gap, and it shows. Also: Why was this guy arrested later? Criminal Mischief? This guy was a dumbass, not a criminal. Oh? He’s not white? Got it.

Speaking of Law and Order, have you heard about the naked guy who robbed some people filming a porn in a bando? The report doesn’t detail what he was armed with but I’m sure the ladies must love it. I’m very curious what this adult film is going to be called? Ass-Bestos? Urb-XXX?

‘Bando News and Messy Views
Aye get the gabbagool! When you buy that Italian house and find a huge mysterious set of tunnels under it.

The long abandoned Kingsway tram stop in London will soon be open for tours and hey fuck it why not?

This big gritty Bronx bando is in the news for all the trash accumulating outside. Wild that spots like this still exist anywhere within NYC. That property is worth several million dollars.

An abandoned school in Iowa called East Sac will become a community center, so break on in while you can. Do it before Left Sac gets jealous. Or just find a stripper who can handle both sacs, in the sac, with some snacks.

Facts.

Florida Firefighters are training in a recent ‘bando and now SO CAN YOU. Well, if you are willing to break the fuck in and have some fun that is.

MS-13 repurposes abandoned buildings and homes in LA sorta like how we make NYC bandos into our de-facto headquarters and party spots. In the ruins of capitalism those with nothing will always thrive.

MEOW! Come get your free ‘bando wall cats! 16 KITTIES AH AH AH.

In college I was on a library computer and found a half-complete paper from some snitch kid I didn’t like, so I added a paragraph of dirty slut talk to it, printed it out and left it in the professor’s mailbox. No this has nothing to do with news or exploring but who doesn’t love a good prank?

Springfield Illinois removed the tax-exempt status of what might be the ugliest abandoned church I’ve ever seen. Clearly this building has been exempt from good taste for quite some time. This is just one more of the many blighted buildings the city is trying to do something about.

Speaking of ‘trying to do something’, The town of Ogdensburg NY is moving against the multiple abandoned buildings at the old St. Lawrence Psych Center. Sounds like they are not long for this world.

Graffiti in the old Rochester Subway is looking pretty damn sharp these days. Also nice to see this spot is still accessible.

Hey look another person finding an abandoned tunnel thingy under their house. Did El Chapo own this joint?

The ghost of an Egyptian Princess lives in an abandoned tube station because: headlines.

New Tunnel Smell
Fort Lauderdale really is the stupidest part of Florida. They’re going to throw away an undisclosed amount of cash on Elon Musk’s fever dream tunnels.

Austin is considering building at least one new transit tunnel. It’s still in the planning phases but maybe one day we’ll all get gassed up on BBQ and get some Texas Underground going.

Yo Yo Yo you catch the Merch Drop?
We are now restocked on LTV Track Gang shirts! Get them while you can, because once they are sold out, they likely won’t be coming back into stock.

‘Bando Building BBQ – Hobo Hell Edition.
Yikes. A ‘bando house fire a few months back turned out to be a pretty horrifying one, in which a homeless person was burned alive after failing to climb out of the burning structure.

Bandos burning in Bakersfield as unknown persons run from the scene…

I’m burning up the abandoned restaurant, I’m burning up the abandoned hair stylist shop, I’m… going to stop this before I take it too far. Like Jamaica avenue too far. (Comically, the guy who set the Atlanta fire is caught on film trying to light up a gas station next door).

Also down south, check out this abandoned Louisville apartment building that collapsed during a fire. Guess no one will be exploring that one again…

Check out Seattle here trying to be all slick by shutting down a homeless encampment, only to result in squatters breaking into buildings, getting into fights and then torching the jawns. And of course the ‘bandos in this particular story will eventually be replaced by high priced housing.

And that’s a wrap…
If there is a multi-verse, what would one of your alternate selves be?

Comments

NOTE: It sometimes takes a short while for comments to be approved - unfortunately there's a lot of spam comments that come in. I absolutely love when y'all share personal stories of friends relatives etc who worked in these places. It really helps capture what these places were like before they closed up shop.

If you're feeling salty, argumentative comments completely devoid of facts (supply links to support your argument) will not be published. Got a case to state? come with the details.
