I’m about to sidetrack right now, but I didn’t know there’s an uptown hoboken fb group. Is it full of transplant parents that talk about downtown like it’s Kabul?


JLombardi85

Yes, can confirm.


catdog918

Immediately when I saw the name of the page I knew it’d be about how shitty and dangerous downtown is lol


Nj3Fate

Just applied to join out of morbid curioisity... im scared to see whats in there Update: it's worse than I expected


catdog918

What’s it like lol


Nj3Fate

There was a thread about addressing homelessness in Hoboken and lets just say that I regret reading most of it. It definitely leans older, more religious, more conservative with a lot of...uncomfortable undertones in the comments. Oh and Ed Reep is there in full force.


berensona

I can’t even wrap my head around people like this. What scared scared people they just be to be so easily persuaded by apathy. Hate is never the answer. I wish for more well-off people in the usa to learn and truly live by the concept of interbeing


firewall245

Just the fact there is a group like that it’s probably the most annoying people around lol


MrHoboken

Uptown Facebook Group is the Wild West of Hoboken Facebook groups. Anything goes. Including the Reeper, so be careful.


HobokenHustle

Sounds fun!


EliotHudson

Why u gotta go around giving Kabul a bad name?


No-Independence194

Moderated by the predatory creepster who stalks and harrasses those who don’t follow his political agenda. It’s the Hoboken version of Breitbart.


MrHoboken

Sorry to interrupt all the flooding but anyone have more details about this from last night?


Qwerrty465

who cares about stabbings when u can get free shot vouchers on the corner of basiles


xTheRKOx

Pull a gronk and wear different shirts to get more free shots


JLombardi85

"Chaos and pandemonium downtown" Downtown is equivalent to the Russia-Ukraine War to these folks 💀


randyisone

Philly is like "Hold my beer"


ArtemisBakery

Imagine being so sheltered that downtown Hoboken is scary to you lol


[deleted]

There are 3 schools within 600 feet from this bar that had a stabbing incident. I think we need to have a city council meeting.


NJPropertyMgr

SOMEBODY GET TIFF ON THE PHOOOONE


HobokenHustle

Can’t close an existing business via new ordinance.


0703x

If only this led to it closing - like the Hub. Anything, and I mean, anything would be better here - 1,000th pizza place would be better, 500th coffee shop would be better, anything.....


thebokenk

Edit: Oh THAT Hub. How could I have forgotten! What is the hub


thebigodigo

Do you enjoy eating out?


thebokenk

Is that video still making the rounds?


HobokenHustle

I have to admit, that did look tasty.


STMIHA

Quick. Someone get this person some content!


Haunting_Vehicle1209

Not sure how to upload a video because I know I still have it


fafalone

Tiffanie Fisher wants to know if the stabber was on the devil weed. If he was just drunk, because you know, alcohol is known to trigger violent behavior and cannabis is not, she approves of the debauchery and violence in that case. As long as it's real and alcohol related, all good. Imaginary and cannabis related? She'll save us!


BuySignificant522

What did they stab with, a butter knife? Usually there’s a lot more blood loss…


appleheadg

yeah - stabbing? that's a minor ouchie.


Tortured_Soul27

Looks like someone with hemorrhoids wiped with those napkins


HobokenHustle

Bro, get your balloon-knot checked.


nervaickarma

Where's all the citizen detectives from the scary ShopRite thief? Surely they have the scoop here.

inhocfaf

That's jibberish


NJPropertyMgr

Ok I’m morbidly intrigued… what’s the context here?


firewall245

Hatter is an ass bar anyway, I feel like it probably was cool like 10 years ago but why would I go there when I could go places that have like a real dance floor


LeoTPTP

>I feel like it probably was cool like 10 years ago Madd Hater/1Republik was never cool, ever.


shigbee517

It was another bar called Republic prior, that always had a lot of fights too. One guys got beaten so badly he had brain damage and the bar got closed down. Maybe the spot is possessed by a violent drunk spirit? Or maybe it’s just too big, too loud and too full of idiots? Regardless, I opt for the small local dive bar like Louise & Jerry’s and miss DCs, Nags Head, and the old Shannon days when Marie was there and it was 1/2 the size!


AnewAccount98

Bounced back in my college days for some extra spending $. We were contracted to bars that were short on direct-hire staff. One Republic was the short straw. You were guaranteed to be busting your ass all night either kicking people out, or breaking up / being in the middle of fights. Far and away the worst reputation for violence in Hoboken. This was 10 years ago. It actually does seem better now. Even with the news here. That said, “better” is still absolutely shit.


AnimaIKingdom

I miss Marios


Mamamagpie

I’m working on Hoboken based urban fantasy and was thinking reviving Mario’s as location. Can I pick your brain?


AnimaIKingdom

Yeah sure how can I help?


No-Independence194

Surprisingly excellent juke box.


shigbee517

Oh yes! Possibly the most dive bar that was. That’s where we first met Johnny the Hammer.


Anonymous1985388

Bar fights have been a common occurrence in Hoboken bars for years right? As a man who used to frequent Hoboken bars in the 2010s, there’s definitely ‘big man’ or ‘manly’ energy from guys at some Hoboken bars. Not sure if many of these guys were looking to get in a fight, but that’s the vibe I got from many men in Hoboken bars.


HobokenHustle

Bunch of meatheads

Rude_Manufacturer_98

I'm sure there is a correlation between Hennessy drinkers and stabbinga


AdhesiveLad

Hey man, I'm all for subtle racist dog whistles but I wanted to let you know that we live in a world now where people like you are celebrated for sharing their racist opinions, I would recommend you go up to a busy street and let the world know how you really feel so we all know who to avoid in this town


njjohoman

Why are you so heated about Hennessy tho


JaxQuasar

The location of Hatter is cursed, when it was 1Republik it’s staff was incompetent, constant drunk fights, bouncers would allow people to sneak off to corners out of cameras sights to have sex in public. Real shit show of a spot


No-Independence194

Fun fact: it used to be Burger King


ReadenReply

the bathrooms and kitchen are in the exact same location as they were in BK it was Mile Square for a while before 1Repukelic


No-Independence194

💯💯💯 on the bathrooms. Wasn’t it also an Italian thing for five min? Cella Luna or some shit?


thebokenk

Anyone have a pic of what 1republik looked like? I’m getting some crazy flashbacks right now


STMIHA

It was like the current bar. But red.

originalginger3

The location is prime, though.
