On second thought the current logo sucks and they picked that one. So maybe UND just always likes the first option?! "No way they'll pick this one!"

He was paid per design and they asked him to possibly do like three or four designs. But they liked the first one. And paid him for that one. Because they didn't need any more. Moral of the story: don't do good work the first go round....or have the contract state you'll present them all at once.

They closed multiple today across the country. Months ago, I had heard them complaining about how they lost money on shrimp fest. Edit: looks like they lost $11 million on endless shrimp and are on the edge of bankruptcy.

People still just gather on the rail and watch the game behind the empty seats. Further creating bottlenecks in the enzones.

Peterson Porch is sold out every game? ...must be to Chaves grandkids right before kickoff every game. Because it's a ghost town!

I'm old enough to remember when people her proclaimed those people who got IRS refunds at the end of the year "shouldn't be proud" because they borrowed the government money interest free. Will UND (a government entity) pay interest for borrowing our money if they don't make the playoffs?!

Fargo residents complaining about all the strip malls...feel like I've heard that before. Valley News Live: Why so many empty strip malls in Fargo

I mean they are called season tickets. It's a dilemma for every game. If it makes anyone feel better. Just pretend the season is just one game longer. If they decide to cancel that last game (cause they didn't make it): You paid $0. That said, I don't like it either. They just give you an entire free season after so many playoff misses? Alerus Center concession vouchers? Menards rebate? Never a fan of mandatory borrowing money.

Went down to the greenway couple weeks ago. First thing I saw was a homeless guy sleeping on a park bench.

What am I missing? There's lot of non hockey players on the site. https://www.siouxshop.com/authentics/

Some of us seem to be forgetting that a "collective" isn't some sort of end game. The Red Pepper can still do those things. The collective can help collaborate this if RP needs help and wants a "one stop shop" to make this happen. As the name indicates, a collective, is an opportunity for small players to enter the field. And if anyone wants, they can make another UND collective. Sorta like the SiouxShop.... "supporting NIL"....just not needing call it a "collective"... cause that would be weird. Nomenclature still trying to catch up: "Proud NIL Supporter of UND Athletics"?

This Red River grad is being sued by Elon Musk. Talk about a feather in your cap. Hey Greg, I know a university that could really use a nice size donation to their athletic department.

Does Fordville still put on the hillclimb? If not, does anyone know where the nearest hillclimb is this summer?

And another upcoming comic event:

Not hard to find quality comedy in GF, the town has a long storied tradition of great comics coming to town. This upcoming Friday:

Unfortunately for you. I heard this is sold out. Edit: oops, I think that was another event this last Saturday to add to all the others (PBR, Sawyer Brown, etc).

Hard to believe the Alerus Center didn't pass on the first vote! Who were the fun haters back them?!

Too many events nowadays, PBR, Sawyer Brown, and UND Ball all on the same night...and the circus?! This weekend is Monster Trucks!

Dang. It's in Minnesota. So not the correct thread. There's a new bar in the works in Moorhead. Called Starbird Lounge. (Airplane mode) Just happens, I recently got into tiki. So I'll be curious to see what its like. Also sad 2 see the iconic Psycho Suzi's closed in Minneapolis. But now I see I have to check out: Rum Row and Tilted Tiki in Stillwater. Don't watch Spikes Breezeway Cocktail Hour on youtube. It's not good for the waistline.

Hak has had an amazing NHL coaching career. I was surprised to hear just how short lived virtually all NHL coaches are. They seem to just enjoy rotating them. Of course, like at UND, just missing those deep playoff runs. (Don't @ me. Deep 2 me is Natty or runner up.)

Exactly. Maybe it's outdated. But use to be popular outside grocery stores during the summer in my day.

They might start construction in half a decade from now if the car washes are successful. https://www.grandforksherald.com/news/local/grand-forks-47th-avenue-interchange-approved-by-federal-highway-administration

Confirmed. It sold out last year. I believe this is the biggest PBR event that comes to North Dakota and Minnesota. As always, can't beat $15 nose bleed seats. (Save fees. buy at Alerus). See ya there tomorrow.
