  1. For high profile soccer games they put up a big screen and every sits on the lawn to watch. It's a fun time.
  2. I just learned of it this morning and came to post. Gavin Kaysen is very good at what he does. He's very active too. There's a high likelyhood that you'll see him there working. https://artfulliving.com/mara-restaurant-minneapolis-gavin-kaysen-interview/
  3. Brit's Pub is right on the corner. (English pub fare with a beautiful roof top if the weather's nice.) Butcher's Tale isn't much farther. (The place for carnivors and whiskey nuts).
  4. Closed? Neither location is showing closed. Revival is great. I think I mentioned it at some point in here. Assuming you were at the Minneapolis location, I would have steered you towards http://www.gordoburgers.com/menu.html down the street.
  5. OK, not exactly disco. But Disco.
  6. These are not necesarily "can't miss" spots (Target Field itself is), but sticking to joints locals go and trying to stay in your parameters... Downtown Brit's Pub- Rooftop (Not a dive but pretty damn unique) Cuzzy's (The one dive bar hold out in the otherwise very trendy North Loop) Runyuns (Wings. Really good ones) Barrio (Tequila. Really good ones) The Depot (Small bar connected to the historic First Ave venue. I like to go there right before day games for fun people watching) Not Downtown (but not too far) CC Club (You asked for a classic Dive Bar) Matt's (Dive bar plus the famous Jucy Luicy. Might be beer and wine only though)
  7. Most of the places in this thread are within walking distance. South on Hennepin from that spot can be a little dicey for a few blocks. Not dangerous really, just chaotic.
  8. This list is basically a list of my favorite places in the states that I've visited/lived. Well except, you know, Dallas. In fairness, this is the result of just about every "most overated" type poll ever started. It happens here too. Start an overrated artists thread and you'll get the Beatles, Stones, and Nirvana on the 1st page. It's just a dumb premise. And I bite every fng time.
  9. I'll admit, my 1st thought was "is this just going to feel like Silence of the Lambs"? Then I remembered that it's Jodi F'ng Foster, and that movie was 30 years ago. She's not going to play like a wet-behind-the-ears rookie. I'm excited!
  10. Oh Boy!!!! https://www.theverge.com/2022/5/26/23143346/jodie-foster-true-detective-season-4-hbo True Detective’s fourth season is going to the Arctic with Jodie Foster as the lead Though Jodie Foster has built a name for herself leading thrillers on the silver screen, her next big project’s going to be something a bit different. Deadline reports that Foster has signed on to True Detective’s fourth season to portray Liz Danvers, a detective tasked with investigating the mysterious disappearances of six people from a research station in Ennis, Alaska. While Danvers is up for the task of figuring out where went wrong near the Tsalal Arctic Research Station, she and her partner arrive in Ennis just as the region’s long winter night and its all-encompassing darkness begin to set in. In addition to starring as Danvers, Foster will also executive produce this chapter of True Detective alongside Barry Jenkins, and the season will be written and directed by Issa López.
  11. We saw several guys in flight suits at our showing.
  12. Just got back from the theater. My son and I loved it. Are there ridiculous parts? Sure. But it's fun, beautifully shot, and pulls off the difficult task of including nostalgic elements of the 1st movie without feeling like a half ass modern day remake.
  13. Still storming bad. Power is out everywhere.
  14. He's a c level actor. Lives in LA. If you have kids you might know him from the Secrets of Sulphur Springs on Disney.
  15. It's a bit. The drainage system at target field is often discussed around here.
  16. Aaaaand there goes our siren. At least we have basements.
  17. Enough to have tornado sirens in every town. I think we're top 10 at least.
  18. Tried to get my dogs to go out and pee before the worst of it and they're not having it.
  19. It's pretty nasty here. Like the part of the Wizard of Oz in black and white bad. Fans have been told to seek shelter.
  20. FYI, Pryes is only a half mile from Bar La Grassa and is an easy walk. It'll be popping on a day like this I bet.
