Love this thread, but let's keep it to Minneapolis, please

The Longhorn Bar
Duffy's
Twin Cities Reader (not 10 years, but I cut my teeth there, so forgive
me
The Minneapolis Star
Mystery Science Theater (born more than a decade ago on local TV in
Minneapolis-based Channel 29, created by Minneapolis guys)
Memorial Stadium
Metropolitan Building
Mayslack's with Stan Mayslack

What does it say? I drank at a few bars, read a few since-consolidated
papers, and watched too much TV & sports, and went to the U.
