Minneapolis - tell me what to do

(it's on the way from minneapolis to chicago)

sine I'll be coming from the Walker in midafternoon, just pick a place I can make it to w/out bursting into flame.

From the Walker on Sunday? We should probably stick with something close to downtown south side. There is Lurcat near Loring, or else if you wanted to head in the opposite direction, there's Liquor Lyles (dive) on Hennepin.

I defer to the locals... one sounds more FAPpy than the other, admitedly.

you'd have to stop in madison, dude.

mad men

I keep lobbying for people to take the long way around and stop in Des Moines instead, but nobody wants my free drinks

Only ever go to Des Moines on holidays.

And there are other options, Morbs, if you're willing to hop on a bus.

I am willing, but let's not make it a long bus ride.

I nominate mpls ilxors to give poor Morbs a ride to whatever dive we're meeting at

btw sitting in front of my laptop writing film reviews w/ bad posture has destroyed my spine, so I'm walking like a 70-yo on this trip.

(your joke here)

glad to hear you're feeling youthful morbs!

I nominate mpls ilxors to give poor Morbs a ride to whatever dive we're meeting at

Well, yeah, there's that too. If we wanted to go Nordeast or deeper Uptown or, horror of horrors, St. Paul.

from Hell's heart I spit at thee, slocki

I am not eating a Jucy Lucy no matter what

:D

Have a good time in our city morbs, pity fatherhood has turned me into an asocial weirdo! Got grams seeing her great granddaughter sunday

I can have a great time when it's 75 degrees

OK, you guys have til 9pm to reach consensus and then I'm turning the decision over to Eric. When I leave the room tomw morning I have to know where I'm going to be all day.

Bulldog in uptown? I am also fine with liquor lyles, if we want the windowless bunker vibe. Also, we are looking at 3:00, right?

I will aim to get wherever you give me no later than 3:30 (using Hopstop)

I like Bulldog just fine too.

u got it! 25th & Lyndale?

Absolutely. And if it's crowded, we just have to push it a few blocks in either direction. There's CC Club, Herkimer, et al.

going to fb message mr. justen my phone number in case you guys change the venue when I am en route

got it!

this is going to be fun! i am bottling beer w/peeps at 1, but i should be able to easily make it to the bulldog by 3

btw you fuckers need some restaurants that stay open past 9pm.

Pizza Luce iirc

See you all tomorrow.

I ate at PL the other night!

we call restaurants that stay open after 9 pm bars here

wait hold on what the hell restaurant were you at that was closing at 9?

Wish I could make it to this, I've never met anyone from this board, but my wife's at a bridal shower this afternoon and I'm on Dad duty. Have fun fapping.

I wasn't at any, I had a marathon walk back to downtown from Como, and couldn't find much open.

Wait, you walked from Como Park? Or Como Avenue near Dinkytown? Either way, that's a loooooong walk! And yeah, depending on your route you might not pass much in the way of restaurants.

my family-based business for the day has thankfully fallen through. i'm totally gonna show up for this!! morbs, no hitting!

no hitting?

thx Minneapolitans, what an uncommonly handsome people you are.

A+++ would hang again

xp oh shush

It's true, they have that Nordic tall, blonde hair, blue eye thing, right

They do.

Awesome to meet/re-see you all again!

spent wednesday and saturday in mpls, was v v v happy & content to go to a mn stars fc game, eat at bryant-lake bowl, shop at extreme noise & cheapo and to have new experiences at canterbury park & buster's on 28th

Just went to Busters on Sunday afternoon.

They have the sake-infused Crispin cider there now, but it's $15 for a 22 oz. bottle. No thx.

really liked the place, especially compared to some similar-theme-but-more-pretentious chicago joints

It used to be one of the neighborhoods best rundown dive bars before getting reborn.

Love Buster's. Lake Inn was a 3.2 joint, wasn't it? Wish I could GIS the old signage, and wish they would have kept that, but everything else is a huge improvement imo.

No, I found that. Prior to that the building was dark green with a huge script-font sign, and wrought iron near the door that looked like champagne bubbles.

Ah, that was the only Lake Inn I knew. Missed its earlier, awesomer dive version.

I know the Twin Cities aren't the heart of the Bible Belt, but is this going to cause any kerfuffle at all?
