Whenever I go to Taco Bell, with their expansive menu, I'm reminded of the old Jim Gaffigan joke: http://www.cc.com/video-clips/pymif1/comedy-central-presents-bottled-water TJ's gotz the Ole's.

They weren't kidding about the theatre-like atmosphere.

SOG Sweep!

UND: Please transition away from the Sioux logo. UND: Come buy our new Fighting Sioux merchandise now available at a Scheels near you.

Miami transitioned away from the Redskins in 1997 and that transition still isn't complete yet.

All that scoreboard and still not enough room on it to fully display the teams logos. Lol

Almost childish...

Not much competition for those types of awards in North Dakota.

The video boards above the entrances are going to be cool. Its all going to add up to a pretty good new experience at the Ralph.

Is that what the voices in your head were telling you I wrote?

Yeah. Same with Schmaltz on the team.

For sure. Same without Boeser.

https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/2725005-Number-of-NHL-draft-picks-on-UNDs-roster-is-on-the-rise The natty team had 13. And that was the lowest since 08-09.

Midco televised the races live last night from Grand Forks. Now GF legend, Mark Dobmeier, is on national tv, DirecTv channel 214 racing in Iowa.

She's probably working out the details right now. Just deciding what building she wants her name on.

She said she wouldn't contribute to the university. She continued to contribute money to a private hockey arena in Grand Forks.

I don't have Midco so I forgot about their weekly dirt track racing recap show, Midco Motorsports. But luckily they upload them to their YouTube channel. Here's the latest with the WoO at Grand Forks and an interview with former Nascar driver Kasey Kahne when he was in town. Also featured is a neat segment on EGF driver, Tom Corcoran, who has been racing for 50 years.

"The study recommends the University rent space in the "Herald Building" and the city to add more direct bus routes from downtown to UND." ...."oh yeah and some bumpouts and new trees too. Have to increase that "walkability score."

"Double whammy" usually means two negatives. I believe BarnWinter meant it as two positives though. The university gets ticket money even when they don't show up and the Big Ten Network gets increased viewership if they stay home and watch the game instead. Which in turn means.... Increased viewership in BTN means bigger payments to Big Ten schools.

Went on the Milton Mud Run this year for the first time. That was a lot of fun. Highly recommended for anyone looking to shred some trails after a long winter. Its for a good cause and the turnout is massive (800+ people). https://www.facebook.com/pages/category/Nonprofit-Organization/Milton-Annual-Mud-RunRide-4-Life-115647758450851/

I haven't got a GoPro yet, but its definately on the list so I can post some videos. Instead of ten second snapchats:

There are some amazing places to ride in North Dakota that I have been to so far: Pembina Gorge The Badlands Kimball Bottoms Roughrider Trail A word to the wise if you go to riding on the Roughrider trail. I watched this video before I went and I almost still flew into the pond like this guy:

Do you even wrench bro?

The larger Fargo is and the more options for stuff to do. The higher the quality of life for Grand Forks residents. Especially with the foregone conclusion of the future of cars. For example, what was going on this week in Fargo? Ribfest outside the Fargodome. Soon you'll be able to pour yourself and your wife some red wine. Hop in the car. Set the destination to Fargo. Facetime the kids. Have some appetizers. And arrive at the Dome. Have a few more cocktails there, eat some ribs, and listen to some live music under the sun. Summon the car to pick you up, tap the "home button" and take a nap on the way back.

Good stuff. As a resident an hour north of Fargo, I love to see Fargo grow. Now its just time for a new Fargodome, I've been pushing for.
