We don't know where the fuck to go every Tuesday

[Halon]

Seems like Allan has a lot of input on an event he never shows up to

If it was moved to an earlier time, I'd have no problem with driving. My situation is that I already had a fairly long commute to the GV Applebee's. And that combined with not leaving there until 11pm usually, and me having to wake up for work at 5am, I just don't need to be adding more time to my commute.

But if we go somewhere at 7:30, and we're out of there by 9 or 10, well then that isn't so bad.

I was also thinking a Pizza place would be cool. I was thinking more like the Broadway Bar Pizza's either off Marshall in Minneapolis, or there is one right off University in Fridley, and there used to be the Palace Inn Broadway Pizza in Crystal, but not sure if it's there anymore. Not sure how central that is for anyone else though, and not sure if they can cram together a bunch of tables for everyone.

And honestly the last thing I need is more fast food in my system. DQ grill sounds interesting, but McD's or Culvers or something, I guess I'm just not a fan. I'd like to go somewhere that I can actually have a beer or 2.

I'll keep racking my brain for other places to go.

Alright lets do this. Lets poll where everyone will be around 6-7pm on tuesday nights. Then we will map out where everyone is, and come up with a centralized "city".

See here.

I agree with brandon.. seems like alot of people making comments dont even show up on a regular basis.

I'd go more if it didn't start at 9pm and I didn't get home till 11pm. But I'll just shut up and see what the regulars plan out.

The last comment I'll make is I'm not going to be up for any pizza joint for the following reasons:

- too much "indoor time"
- too much of a pain to keep the group together with varied arrival times
- spiltting bills and moochers, sorry, we all know some people are cheaper than others. With Bee's we could at least all order individual apps & shit.

I'll roll to a pizza joint if the weather is bad or it's chilli out or something, but not on a nice night.

I like Brandon's idea of pizza. I also agree that I'd prefer a place where I can tip back a few beers. Heck, I also agree about his fast food comment.

Uptown Old Chicago is central, but parking there is a nightmare so thats out.

Go, vote.

I'd go more too if it started much earlier. I think there's more and more of us that work Full Time (regular) office hours (and earlier), so starting a meet at 9 p.m. and having to drive 30-45 min. each way isn't my idea of a fun night.

[Halon]

I do agree with one thing Allan said. On a nice summer day, at 7:30, the sun will still be out and it'd be nice to maybe chill outside a little bit. Maybe somewhere with a nice patio outside. Every MAJORS that I've ever been to had a patio outside to chill on. And if we don't have a ton of tables together, well shit you just chill and lean on the railing or something. And if it starts raining, well you just head inside, to the bar, play pool, whatever. Something like a Champps or Majors maybe, something with a patio would be cool. That way you have food, you have beer, maybe some Golf or Bowling video games, some pool tables...

I do still like the idea of a Pizza place though, and I do believe the Broadway in Fridley has a patio, but that is northern Fridley and may be a bit of a drive for the southern folk.

I'm going to continue brain stormin!

Oh it's still a fun night, it's the morning that's not very fun though!!

Actually, Major's is a REALLY good idea. Katelyn get's 25 dollar gift ceretificates there, so that would really help out with the bill. The happy hour isn't till later, but I'd still be game. What's a good central location for everyone?

[Kracka]

Major's sounds like a good idea. There in one in Golden Valley on 394, but besides for the Blaine one I don't know where else they are located.

[Swifty1638]

By the ford dealership near the state fairgrounds I think there's one. there's one in woodbury, and I know a few other places I've gone. But, that GV one sounds like a good place.

Mayeb call Majors and see what the possibility of having a group of tables available?

A bowling alley itself isn't even a bad idea, big parking lots, bar, bowling, video games, pool tables, ect ect. Indoor and outdoor fun.

[A//// Guy]

Yea the GV majors would be nice but the north people probably think its too far south?

[AJ]

Is Majors 21+ at all after a certain time?

[Halon]

Majors is like a Champps. I don't believe there is ever a 21+ time. Families can go there and eat with their children at 9pm if they want. The only locations I know of are in Blaine, Vadnais Heights, and Albertville. All of which are not very central locations. But if there is a central location somewhere, then that'd be fine. GV isn't too far for me if we are getting there at 7 instead of the old 9 o'clock.

I used to go to Majors in Vadnais Heights every thursday after work, because they used to do Free Beer Thursday's from 5-6, and that also included 2 for 1 appetizers. But they stopped that. But it's a pretty good place to go to, good atmosphere, decent food, not too expensive.

Allan, I'm not sure about a bowling alley. Doesn't that completely go against your "not enough outside time" arguement?



HERE YOU CAN SEE THERE'S A MAJORS IN GOLDEN VALLEY, AND ONE IN CRYSTAL. BOTH WOULD PROBABLY BE FAIRLY CENTRALIZED.

No, more interested for the size of the parking lots, and also the ability to go inside if the weather is bad.

[Halon]

Hell we could just go to a random park every Tuesday, bring some little grills and coolers with beer and pop and water, maybe a couple footballs, and if it rains just have a 2nd place like a Majors as a backup that everyone knows that if it's raining, we go there.

Just spouting off some more ideas...
