Boise, 1988ish

Shot of Boise from Moving (1988) from r/Boise

A scene from a Richard Pryor film, Moving.

What do you see that you can’t see now?

For me, it’s the University Inn – home of the Iron Gate Bar. A place that was an integral part of my Boise State University education. I had professors who regularly held classes IN that bar. You know, for refreshing drinks, intense discussions and free popcorn.

Oh, and that “Welcome to Boise” sign was a movie prop. I worked on the air here in Boise way back in those olden days, and people called the station to ask why the sign was there – unaware it was placed for a film. It was only there for a short time.
