I lived in Syracuse for 1966 to 1989, I do miss it but glad I moved

Where did you go and why? Thanks for your interest

[@BackyardRevivals]

Was just in cuse for a concert last night! State Fair was excellent couple weeks ago. Went to Harry's bar and danced my heart out.

[@LocalNYhistory]

Nice!

Who did you see?

[@user-gf3lw5pi4t]

Another great production , keep them coming❤

[@teds3242]

Neat summary. Would've been good to make some mention to the I-81 construction and its upcoming demolition.

[@Mr_Dopey]

You left out the Syracuse Nationals NBA team. They became national champions, the shot clock was invented by their owner and GM, and they later became the Philadelphia 76ers.

I know I know - years ago I did a whole video about the basketball team on a different channel. I had to be brief with pretty much everything, unfortunately. Anyway, thanks for watching

Syracuse is the worst city and it's getting worse every year

Aqualung?

[@SashaandThomas]

THATS WHERE I LIVE😂

[@user-it1tr8eo4b]

How come they rejected the missionaries but gave to the settlers? Is it an immigration thing? I'm confused

[@LocalNYhistory]

After the American Revolution treaties pushed much of the Haudenosaunee out of the area

[@deemarie5534]

The Haudenosaunne had their land stolen. You’re on stolen land. Read a book!!!!!!! #landback

[@bmbunch8825]

Idt you're from Syracuse by the way you pronounce Salina...

Colonialism the history of this country as well as its demise

[@skipfluck4299]

A war was fought and the Settlers won. You can always give all your stuff to the surviving Native Americans, maybe we will be impressed by it, and do it also.
