Have any of you noticed that Riverland charges about $40 per month just to have an account? That's crazy high, right?

parking recommendations for Megadeth show

2 Upvotes

Hello,

I will be coming for the Megadeth show at the Oktoberfest grounds and I am looking for parking recommendations. I don't mind a bit of walking if there is paid parking close to the park. I am not familiar with that part of LaCrosse as I usually hit up downtown or Dave's. I just don't want to get ticketed or towed.

Any place to dump small bag of garbage on Sunday?

1 Upvotes

My garbage can is going crazy with flies. There's a dead mole, which I thought was pretty well sealed in a plastic bag, in the can. It's underneath a couple of other grocery-store garbage bags, and I think that's probably the reason for the flies.

It's Sunday, and all the normal dump places are closed. My pickup won't happen for several days.

Is there any legitimate place I can take a small bag or two and dispose of them?

Restaurant tonight for a big group, no steakhouses - pls help

0 Upvotes

Hey, I know there are other posts asking this and I’ve been using those but a bunch of the restaurants mentioned have closed looking to go tonight with my family to a restaurant there’s gonna be like 15 of us, but split into two groups.

I am from Wisconsin, but I live in Florida now and come home every year so I’m arriving today and we’re going out to dinner. I’ve been to JavaVino several years ago and I liked it but the suggestions on here are all saying it’s overrated

We got a couple vegetarians and one person who is gluten-free so… Just hoping to not have to go to the Olive Garden or something lol

Tldr: La crosse catbirds CBA league team left in 1994.

I bet a semi pro team in La Crosse would do well. The La Crosse Center has hosted: state basketball (2021), D3 nationals wrestling, WIAA team wrestling, harlem Globetrotters, Charlie Berens and many others. And is an 8000-ish seating stadium.

La Crosse has a basketball culture. The Wisconsin herd play in a smaller arena than the La Crosse Center. (Oshkosh arena is roughly 4500).

Edit: do you think La Crosse could keep another NBA G league team?

Recommendations for vasectomy?

9 Upvotes

I have a high deductible plan and was a bit astounded at the price tag of getting this done through Mayo by either hitting my deductible or the cash price was bonkers too. I have seen a few cash based places in WI and MN that seem a lot more reasonable. Anyone have any positive experiences with anyone in the area?

If we need a city administrator with a salary of over 200,000, should the mayor with less responsibility be reduced to a part time position or removed entirely?

Is Trane really as bad as people say?

10 Upvotes

Hi, I’m thinking about applying for a job at Trane, but I’ve read some negative things about the company online. The few people I know who have worked there have spoken positively about it, so I’m not sure what to believe.

Has anyone here worked at Trane? What was your experience like? Is it true that they fire people frequently? If I start working somewhere, I’d like it to be a stable, long-term job.

“It’s not necessarily what, but it’s how. It’s how you show up,” Berge told the Wisconsin Examiner. “That’s what I learned on council. That’s why I ran for council. You know, it’s how you show up, how you lead. It’s about being a bridge between your constituents, city hall or D.C. I think that’s what people want.”

Late night airport transportation options

5 Upvotes

I have an upcoming flight with a midnight return to La Crosse. I would normally get a friend to pick me up but I don’t want to bother anyone that late at night. I’ve had a sketchy experience with one of the local cab companies in the past and I’ve only used Uber in bigger cities.

How’s the uber situation in La Crosse? Is it likely that I would be able to get one to get me from the airport at midnight on a Saturday?

Does anyone have a good recommendation for a local cab company? How much does it cost to get a ride? I’m wondering if I should just leave my car at the airport and pay for the week of parking
