Default Underground "Crack Tunnel" To Be Closed

Saw this on a group page on Facebook. I can't 100% verify its authenticity, but I can't see why it wouldn't be legit. If it's not, it's a pretty good looking fake.

Seems that the City's had enough of that underpass, and is going to close it. I used to live in the area, and used it on occasion. Was definitely an 'interesting' place to use.

I heard they were doing that probably a year ago...I assume now that they have the overpass it isn't worth keeping.

As long as they close this crack tunnel, and not the good one, I'm ok with this decision.

The tunnel under Glenmore by Chinook LRT is pretty sketchy too.

I thought this was closed already. Used to use this tunnel when I lived in the area. Never saw anyone down there, only smelled the urine.

I've driven by this hundreds if not thousands of times in my life and never realized it existed.

Used to use it often when I worked close by. Always smelled of piss and had to step over a couple of sleeping/drunken hobos once, but didn't bump into too many people down there otherwise. When there was someone coming the other way it became a fun game of working out whether trouble might be coming or not.

That must be where the pan-handlers hang out on their off shifts, because there never fails to be at least one working the intersection (they also never fail to have nice shoes and a nice jacket on).

There's a better crack tunnel? Cool. Where is it? I love doing crack in tunnels.

No you misunderstand, the tunnel is made of crack.

And all along I've just been using the tunnel to buy the crack! I didnt know it was made of it and that you could do it there!

All this time....so many wasted years...

It's just down from this one, in the crack tunnel district.
