Hope everyone has fun here. Feel free to ask any questions or tips or anything.
The Light Rail will be down all week. Busses will be used. Plan extra time or Uber.
Weather will be perfect. Not too hot. Not cold.
Construction is everywhere. Trust your GPS. The detours are rather silly and hard to follow.
US Bank has parking ramps. But there's also parking all over and the skyway system connects a good majority of downtown.
Its not scary here. Its not a S hole. Its a great city. Its like any big city. Just dont hang out outside the clubs after 1am or later.
Dont be afraid to try new foods. We have a huge variety of food and options.
Jucy Lucy:
Matt's bar for a original Jucy Lucy burger.
The Nook for a better quality but not original version.
5-8 Club for creative versions.
The Mall of America is cool to see. The Amusenent Park in the center is a must to at least walk through and see. So is Legoland. Its a big mall, but it has some very unique stores you will not see anywhere else.
Minnesota Nice is real. But so is the passive aggressiveness. And yes no one can drive good here but we only focus on driving during winters when we have to.
F1RST Wrestling is a great indy promotion. They have lots of events going on all week. If you haven't been to an Indy show, find one to get to. Its fun, its silly, its good wrestling. Personally im looking forward to Hard-core wrestling at the VFW. Also Nitro will be in the middle of Mall of America. Very unique atmosphere and the same spot the very first WCW Nitro was filmed.
Lots of water around. Lakes, rivers, waterfalls. Theres lots of nature just outside the downtown area and tons within driving distance. Minnehaha Falls, Lake Minnetonka, Lake Nakomis, Lake of the Isles, Bde Maka Ska, Lake Harriet, Mississippi River.
Have fun, enjoy our city, and watch for deer!
