If you walk down Agricola, day or night, you’ve probably smelled the putrid stench of fresh, hot piss directly across from Obsolete Records. I don’t know if someone is marking their territory daily or if I’m just going crazy but GOD, MAKE IT STOP!! If it’s brown flush it down; if it’s yellow let it mellow, but not on the sidewalk, k thanks! #gag —Pissed off North Ender

Not true. This has been brought up before. Someone has urophilia and BAD; bad enough to get off on writing fictional letter bitches about it…
OMG This!
Yes! I have smelled this SO MANY times! What the hell is up with this? Is somebody dumping buckets of pee onto the sidewalk every night?
I HATE IT IT STINKS!!
You need to distinguish the smell of urine from hops.
IT’S HOPS FROM THE OLAND BREWERY. WE’VE ALREADY BEEN THROUGH THIS.
It’s not hops.
I actually worked at Oland’s one summer right out of high school. Union pay for college students, plus free beer. It was a pretty good gig. Now, horrifically, I actually enjoy that yeasty-hoppy smell down by the Hydrostone.
But this bitch (and previous ones about that smell) are talking about the other end of Agricola. It’s a very precise area. Walk half a block in either direction and no more hot urine smell.
I’ve been told an elderly lady in an upstairs apartment simply shucks her piss bucket out the window early in the morning like it was Victorian England. I sadly haven’t the desire to stake out that corner for several hours pre-dawn in the hopes of seeing some pee slosh rain down on the street, so I’d suggest anyone sufficiently upset should maybe try 311. See if that does anything.
No, it’s not hops. I live right by the brewery and I know the stinky hops smell very well. This is a very distinctive urine smell. It’s really bad- I can’t believe there are people here who have never smelled it! It is really disgusting.
