San Diego was home back then. I was 22 in 1985. I remember watching Hal Clement. So many fun memories cruising all around the County, concerts at San Diego Sports Arena, Tijuana, etc. I finally had to say goodbye to SD in 2005. I visited in 2012 & 2014. So glad I lived there when I did.
I grew up in National City. 1985 is the year I turned 15 and also the summer of 1985 is when I left for New Mexico and never came back to live in National City again. I loved NC, San Diego of the 70s and 80s. Best times to live there in my opinion. It grew up without me and New Mexico is where I truly belong. Had some great times in San Diego
@@davidcohen7106 thanks for sharing, reminding me of that special biscuit, use to save em ,than have a biscuit toss contest with em! Remember Shorty? was at every event, gathering, concert back then! Peace!
OMG when he said Julian !!! Me and my beautiful ex gf and I loved that ride to Julian and we would then drink at this bar. We even were so drunk 1 night we slept in my car till 5am and then drove back to Oceanside. I am from Massachusetts and she was from Minnesota so we loved our rides to Julian
2:32 The old Dean's Photo building. They processed _a lot_ of film there. If those pictures taken of nefarious activities weren't Polaroids, they probably ended up seeing them!
🦆I remember the Police putting an end to the Locals, making room for tourism. I lived on Thomas ans Cass back then, I remember the Police putting an end to the Locals, making room for tourism. " This is an Unlawful assembly ! " 🚓🚓🚓

Thanks 8 news for bringing back good memories in the past
I'm looking for myself in this video, I spent all my free time on the PB / MB boardwalk in 1985, it is so GREAT to see this footage, THANK YOU!

Brings back many good memories. I miss those days...
Ahh to be 15 again . Lol Great stuff Hal Clement . I grew with you on the news.
Before they painted a line on the boardwalk to direct foot traffic. I miss walking the boardwalk before the mega crowds.
Yea, 79 is beautiful. A little bit of 94 going to Campo
San Diego is indeed a beautiful - albeit expensive - city.
Mission Beach / 4th of July. For every lady it was their super bowl ! They all came out for that day :)
Breakfast at Mr. Ds, mission beach late 70s early 80s! Da best deal! Aloha from westside Oahu! Miss those good old days!

1:27 this bird is probably still alive today, these things live forever. These things now flock to East County in droves from Sept to spring.
Do that bird know how to talk?
I miss these days. Today sucks
Still better than LA and SF, and most other American big cities for that matter.
I agree
Agree. Sadly agree.
I agree
Lol! The rings in the background! I forgot about that! And actual room to walk on the boardwalk too!
I miss San Diego now. If only I moved there in the 80's and was able to actually afford a home 😭
I used to go fishing there and boating

I really miss this sandiego it was the best. Today it's paradise lost.
I droved my GTO in 805 freeway
GAWD! People were way better looking back then!
2:49 is called Suicide Bridge to the locals.
Yep. For the obvious reason.
Damn that's some sad music at the end. As if San Diego died or something. 😅
It did die. They didn’t know back in the 80s how bad it would get

LOL no way can you make San Diego to Julian in 45 minutes.

Good old days in SD. So sad how the democrats ruined it. Moved to a Red state last year. What a relief.
Yep. I lived in SanDiego from birth in 62 until 99 for the same reason. Now Nevada is becoming the same
