pbrewer+FollowGoing to Denver Made Me Realize How Many Cities Hide Their Problems Behind Mountains” Denver looks perfect from afar — mountains, breweries, clean air. But when I explored beyond the tourist map, the image cracked. Locals complain about Californians raising rent. Californians complain locals hate newcomers. Homeless camps keep getting “relocated,” meaning pushed out of sight before big events. One bartender told me, “Denver is becoming a city for people who don’t actually live in Denver.” And honestly? I felt that. It’s wild how a city can look so peaceful while quietly fighting a war between old residents, new money, and people who can’t afford to be there at all. #Travel #Denver #Gentrification4211Share

Locals and travelers are loving the playful jabs, but there’s more at stake: both airlines are fighting hard for Denver’s growing travel market. With both carriers expanding at DIA, could this rivalry mean better deals or more choices for us? What do you think—does this kind of competition make you more loyal to one airline, or just more entertained? #News #Denver #AirlineRivalry10Share
Robert Daniels+FollowDenver’s donut challenge turns tragicA local donut-eating contest at Voodoo Doughnut in Denver ended in heartbreak when Travis Malouf lost his life trying to finish a massive 250g glazed donut in under 80 seconds.

This isn’t the first time speed-eating has had fatal consequences—similar tragedies have happened elsewhere. It’s a sobering reminder: are these eating challenges worth the risk? What do you think about competitive eating events? #Food #Denver #CommunitySafety00Share
