If you are comming from uptown you will have to take you head out of your @ss, then take 77s to 485

Aren't sections of Ballantyne technically in SC? If not, then it's less than a mile away.

Thanks for posting this! I live in Ballantyne but work Uptown and have to get home to take out a pet so I can never hang around at Epicentre. It's nice to have an alternative to the precious Uptown scene.

Sounds like a person who can't figure a way out of his driveway without a GPS. Best way to find Ballantyne is follow I-77 south to 485 East, then when the traffic comes to a complete halt on 485, you know your getting close.

The Uptown scene is not precious! It is just as trashy as anywhere else in Charlotte. Look at the photos from LazyDay.com! 98% of people in those pics are trailer trash! DISGUSTING. Are there any CLASSY people and places in Charlotte???

11:22A....I was using sarcasm! I have noticed everyone here acts like Uptown is the place to be and I can stomach the nightlife there once or twice a year.

It's nice that they built the EpiCentre however I would love to hear about what's going on in different parts of town...Plaza, NoDa, Dilworth and such. Some of my best memories going out in Charlotte have happened there.

I agree about LazyDay 100% Especially some of those people who are past their prime. By that I mean, dress appropriately for your age and have some class.

Uptown is terrible but so is Ballantyne. It's about as much fun as the flu. Head to the East Side where people are much more friendly and laid back (Jack's, P Stone, Thomas Street, Thirsty Beaver, Snug Harbor, or even Tyber Creek in South End)

I am an upstanding, CLASSY, and TASTEFUL citizen of Charlotte. Thank you very much for that link. I agree the girls on there are TRASHY and DISREPUTABLE. I can't wait to look at it again when I get a private moment.
