More bars and high school basketball games to go to?
Grand Forks definitely had more entertainment options, especially per capita, on that Saturday night than MSP.
It would be equivalent to MSP having 700,000 people attending concerts and sporting events that night.
Instead it's only 19,000 at a hockey game in a city of 3,000,000+ people. (well in honesty there was also a few local bands playing at bars and the mega crowds at Minnesota's biggeat tourist attraction, the mall, that night.)
