Hello. Im going to VU for a couple of months. Any good hiking trails? I also play soccer a lot. Does any play adult pickup around here?
INTRO:
O Vincennes, O Vincennes, O honorable name of Vincennes...
The shining bright city, isn’t it so pretty?
Land of the free, for you and me...
We shall come to thee!
VERSE:
The great first town, and torch of trailblazers
The shout of the Spartans, the land of the corn, O honorable name of Vincennes!
PRE-CHORUS:
Oh, lovely New France, looking so grand
Edge of the Wabash, shining green all grass
Great spearhead of Indiana, O honorable name of Vincennes!
CHORUS:
Look at the sky, shining so bright!
We give them the light, aren’t I right?
The river still glitters, it is the big lure
Calling for them, ee’n without sand
It is the might, bringing the sight!
O, cross the bridges, to the O honorable name of Vincennes!
BRIDGE:
But, that is not all, O, why does it call?
Only because it’s the home of all!
OUTRO:
Home of the great Red Skeleton, Home of the white first House of Land!
Home of George Rogers and Harrison, they are our men!
Home of the grand Fur trading stand!
Home of the Mastodon and Saber-tooth!
Home of this lovely land for me and you!
Honorable land, wonder so grand!
O, Honorable name of Vincennes!
(THE PRE-CHORUS AND OUTRO ARE MEANT TO BE SUNG QUICKLY)
Longtime residents - what restaurants/stores have opened in Vincennes and closed, what do you miss? post any pictures if you have them. I'm a fan of local history.
(e.g. I found out that there was a Starbucks on Hart St a few years ago)
Recent announcement that in 2024 we should be getting a Zaxby's Restaurant.
No details on location - what are people's guesses?

UPDATE - It's in the plaza by the Buffalo Wild Wings.

I know there used to be a Hibbett Sporting Good Store on Kimmel next to Ollies, but the building is vacant and available for lease.
On the job boards, I keep seeing postings for General Manager, Assistant, and Sales people for Hibbett Sports Vincennes. Where would the new location go? There are plenty of available emply stores in the area.
CONSPIRACY or am I just not looking in the right area?
does anyone know what is going in on the end store next to the army recruiter? I saw that they're putting in a drive thru.
I try to keep informed of new businesses/restaurants opening in the area and support local when I can. I keep checking the Chamber of Commerce webpage, but does anyone know of new businesses planning to open in Vincennes in 2023?
Driving around this morning and saw that there was a new store opening up downtown next to where Graze used to be with an "Opening 11/11/22" on the window. I didn't see much else - does anyone know what's there?
If you live in Knox County Indiana and were alive during October of 1996, do you know of any unidentified craft that was traveling over the area. Specifically, the area around Oaktown and Bicknell. This is an image my grandmother drew when I asked her to draw what she saw.
I'm new to the area. What's the story with "Bobe's" in the pizza game. We have Bill Bobe's and Byron Bobe's in Vincennes, Larry Bobe's in Lawrenceville, IL Susan Bobe's in Princeton Henry Bobe's and various Bobe's Express, etc.
What's the history, curious minds want to know
