So sorry to hear that Victoria had that experience.My experience with block E was just the oppoiste. Met friends for dinner, Hard cafe was packed, Hopscotch was busy. I enjoyed seeing a movie at the theater which was full to capicity.The most surprising event was that there were people outside of block E walking around.
I have and would go back to Block E.Just my thoughts for the day.

Thursday evening, my date and I decided to go to dinner and to see the 7:00
p.m. showing of "Chicago."  I suggested Block E since I had never seen it.

First we checked out Hard Rock - too noisy and no one was in the
restaurant, though a handful of people were at the bar.  We walked around
the common areas, but the only people we saw were a couple of swarms of
junior thugs (the crotches of their jeans hanging at knee level) and a
couple of nice looking young men in blue uniforms with guns on their hips.

At about 5:30 we decided to eat at Hopscotch.  We were the only two
customers in the restaurant until nearly 7:00 when we went upstairs to the
theater.  Doug mentioned that he had eaten lunch at Hopscotch on Tuesday -
there were no customers then either.

The theater was quite nice and very comfortable, but there were only six
other people in the entire auditorium.  No one was milling around the lobby
either.

I had parked underneath the IDS Center, so we walked down 7th Street (north
side) at about 9:45.  It seemed like we were in France because there were
so many rude teenagers blocking the sidewalk.

I won't be going back to Block E for a long while, so do Listmembers know
any other conservative hangouts in Minneapolis?
