We stopped going to downtown, almost for any reason except Avs games. Even then, we leave the sack and Uber right back to cherry creek. We used to stay in downtown all the time with my spouse's hotel employee benefits but not anymore. Everything changed for us when a homeless dude tried to attack us as he was walking in the rain in a t shirt with his fists balled yelling. My empathy for the homeless druggies in downtown is gone. My spouse's safety is more important.
That is largely because Texas keeps bussing their homeless to Denver.
Is that where they come from? There are so many homeless people in Denver, it’s insane.
