    Mizzou sent me a message telling me to keep posting so here are some fabulous 494 spots.

    Either that or the snow is getting to me.

    See what a Bennigan's can become. Go to Lucky's 13 and drink beer and do pull tabs! Amazing, really. History note, 1980 US Gold Medal Hockey team drank here after coming back from the Games:

    Wanna see what happens when a Steak and Ale closes? Go here, eat some peanuts from the shell, ride the bull and maybe get in a scrap! Watch the steel trough urinals, backspray can be an issue:

    Sports bar, etc., etc, etc: /King and I

    Of course, there is the Waterpark of America:

    I'm trying to decide what to wear when I pick Miz and his friends up at the airport. Maybe a Favre Viking jersey.

    Please note: MH does not endorse any of these spots, for informational / posting out of boredom purposes only.

    Post as much as you like... I'll bet I hit at least three of the restaurants mentioned on this thread...

    I haven't been handcuffed by police in almost 10 years.

    Telling me this was a mistake. You know that, right?

    I've never been but I know the Ethiopian cuisine and beer/cocktail list at The Blue Nile is supposed to be top-notch. Always at least three Surly taps on, which is good enough for me!

    Never been but multiple people have recommended: http://seasalteatery.wordpress.com/

    Have always wanted to go to Al's Breakfast since seeing it on DDD, but have yet to make it there (Mrs Fly insisted on Colossal Cafe, and we weren't disappointed there).

    A buddy of mine said Amy's Breakfast Burrito at Bryant Lake Bowl is a must-have next time I'm in town. Yeah, a bowling alley with great food, who knew? Another spot featured on DDD. http://bryantlakebowl.com/

    Had Muddy Pig on my list but saw you already posted it so I deferred.

    There's a poster drifting around these parts who wasn't all that impressed with Al's. Stated that at least once that I can remember. I guess he's more of a sushi guy.

    /poking the third line grinder with a Northland Custom Pro Lite 8)

    Have friends who go to Bryant Lake and like it. I've never been. Also heard good things about Blue Nile but never been. I need to go to more bars!

    Seasalt? Look back in the thread :D

    Now I get to go out and shovel snow. Again.

    Norm Green sucks.

    Ahhh, Reggie's.... that takes me back to the hardest working girls a dollar will buy in Hennepin County

    And really, Machine? Senser's?

    Go to Rick's Cabaret... ask for the manager, tell my brother I said hi...
