Preface: I know that 2/3 of this discussion has already happened, but I would like some poll numbers from people on here.
One idea that has been gaining traction in recent days, both here on BSD as well as on other websites, is the idea of renaming a street after Joe Paterno. While I am wholeheartedly for the idea of renaming a street "The Paterno Way", there seems to be some discourse as to which street should be given the honor. Ideas proposed have been:
Curtin Rd. between University and Porter
Curtin Rd. in its entirety
University Drive
Park Ave
College Ave
Since I would like to move forward with creating a petition separate from 93.7's (I want it to include the "the"), I would like to get some feedback from everyone here on BSD as to which street you think would be the best one to rename. I have excluded College Ave since it is a state route along its entire length, and trying to get the state to approve anything is like getting Craig James to admit he killed five hookers while at TCU. I also didn't include the partial renaming of Curtin Rd, because it's confusing to only rename part of a street, and an overlay name (like Avenue of the Arts for Broad Street in Philly) just sucks. If for any reason you hate the entire concept, feel free to check "none".
