My husband and I went to the Peoria Civic Center to watch All Elite Wrestling Collision. There was…read morea large line to get into the building but the line went quickly. Once inside there were plenty of people to help guide us to our seats. The seats were comfortable and I had enough leg room. I had a good view of the wrestling ring. Some of the patrons near me were obnoxiously loud while their parents left them to drink, but I can't blame that on the stadium. My husband and I ate before coming to avoid the high costs of food and drink. Overall, I had a nice time and would come back to watch another show.

ent to the Katt Williams Golden Age Tour in Peoria, IL last night. It was definitely a calmer, more…read moremature version of Katt. The material was a little milder and the laughs were there, but I can't say it had the gut-busting moments like the old days. The show had a full lineup. Opening acts included R&B performances from Lady of Rage and Lil' Mo, plus comedians Mark Curry, Tommy Davidson, Melanie Camacho, Red Grant, Zoo Man, and Corey B. The only downside? Folks in my section were constantly getting up for something -- up, down, up, down all night -- which made it hard to stay focused on the stage. Still, it was an enjoyable night of laughs overall. And a little bonus... I found a free parking meter several blocks away, so I didn't have to pay for parking. Always a win.

The Peoria Riverfront Museum is a really neat place that you should check out while you're in…read morePeoria. Right outside the museum, on the southside of the building is the Peoria Holocaust Memorial. This is a touching tribute from the community to those who died in the Holocaust. We lucked into going on a "community day" where there was a large festival outside celebrating Cinqo de Mayo. The advantage was that admission was free on that day. The downside was that the music from outside could be heard inside the museum. It was also very crowded with many children running around unattended. The museum featured an exhibit on American 250 curated by Ken Burns. The planetarium also has a really cool and interactive show explaining where the stars are in our solar system. The museum also features a variety of rotating exhibits. I highly recommend a visit to the Peoria Riverfront Museum.

It could be because it's located downtown, but it's just strange for a public library. Maybe if they had security making sure people who park are actual patrons, they could make parking free. Another idea would be to have patrons come in and be given a token to put into the slot for an amount of time they plan to stay. The library has three floors and plenty of room for everyone. I like that it's very roomy. The staff is friendly. Sometimes people do loiter around the entrance which is intimidating. Some homeless people hang out at the tables which is fine because there are enough tables for everyone, just an FYI.

Let's get the facts straight before you go erasing my review. Honestly I'm putting this at one star…read morebecause I don't really come here anymore. Why you may ask? Well the story goes like this. One day I was using the computer and after I got finished using it I found a phone that may have belonged to a younger female who said she had left it behind and forgot it. I walked all around the library hoping I would be able to find who lost their phone but nothing else left to do but leave thinking: "hey! I found me a phone!" Nope, not even close. I ended up catching a bus ride home and even an half hour later that phone rang and it was the female who lost it. So I returned the item and the lady got mad at me and called the cops and it made me get banned from the library forever apparently. But time only tells when you didn't get arrested for 6 straight years being a good citizen and it made me look I was a criminal. It was probably was a phishing scam to get me thrown out Anyways. So to make things short I guess what I'm saying is if you really want a real review then read what I have to say. I don't recommend coming here. There's too much going on with drama.

So I'm just hanging out looking at the bridge and next thing you know the police are subtly…read moreencouraging me to leave ...and by subtle I mean alley lights and hand-spot light up the car suggesting I move along. hard to blame them though: some guy in a little truck with out of state plates taking pictures of the under-side of the highway bridge at 11:30pm on a Saturday night with the lights off. the signage indicates no parking after midnight but we live in interesting times.... Memorializing Murray Baker, the man responsible for bringing Caterpillar to town, the bridge has been carrying I-74 across 500' of the Illinois River since 1958. The bridge is just over 3000' long (lost about 200 feet while in rehab) and clears the water by some 60 feet give or take. In the finest tradition this bridge doesn't quite measure up to the official Interstate Highway Bridge requirements but there you go. Since 2020 500 LED bulbs light the structure at a reasonable cost. Requests for special lighting schemes need to be submitted to the public works department at least 30 days in advance.

It's alright, I guess. Nothing special, just a place to park your car. It gets the job done, but…read moredon't expect anything fancy. Could use some sprucing up, maybe better lighting? It's kinda dark at night.
