Literally the million dollar question, http://bismarcktribune.com/news/state-and-regional/extra-revenue-vacant-positions-solve-und-budget-shortfall/article_f0ccb39d-82ba-5074-9bfb-ee9a1f97d291.html Whats the odds the Herald does some investigating? Or does one have to wait for Rob Port again?

Good question Fetch. Too deep for me to know the answer to.... Take care of yourself. Life is short. Don't make it any shorter. Your grandson isn't going to learn all these "random musings" without you.

Correct.

Discuss.

Its a big series...he's waiting for gfhockey to start it.

You're catching on.

No. The food has always been average. Some years new menu items will be added and liked. Some years not so much. But my goal is to let people know we are an option for them that evening. And hopefully a few will pick a menu item they like and eventually become regulars. And those regulars will spread the word, thus increasing sales and the need for less marketing. Ya all graduated from college?

My new restaurant hasn't won any awards and very few people show up. I'm going to wait til I get it gets busy and then start marketing.

Only market when you're a good team? That makes zero sense.

Hey man, I'm just towing the company line. What's his name, jayson?, he said the reason for canceling the show was "resources."And that was when cash was growing in the ground... I think I read they were going to cut a million for the athletic budget.

Another marketing opportunity, continue this series: The Athletic Department already knows these things. They just don't have any money to do them. I don't expect the promotions and marketing to increase anytime soon, especially with budget cuts.

Does UND Football have a "Players Lounge"? I'd have to assume so, I've seen plenty of the Ralphs, seen the Betty's, and the Bison have a pretty nice one in the Fargodome. Never seen a picture of UND's.

Looks similar to my powerpoint slide show presentations in High School.

Does one cheer for Denver so more NCHC teams will be more likely to make the NCAA tournament? Also helping UND's PWR.

Also available to everyone in the Red River Valley. The XTRA channel can be found on channels 29 and 1029 for Cable One subscribers and channel 596 for Mid-Co subscribers. It can also be found on Channel 6.3 on the antenna.

I think you nailed it: more bars is about it. Those same bands stop in GF or Fargo: Carrie Underwood, Florida Georgia Line, Boyz II Men (), Alan Jackson, Justin Bieber, James Taylor, Rob Zombie, Foreigner are just a few of the upcoming bands to the RRV.

This has always been the worlds dumbest argument. 11,500 in a town of 60,000 = 19% of the "metro" at a hockey game. 30,000 (sold out Xcel Energy Center & Mariucci Arena) in a town of 700,000 (that's only of St. Paul and Minneapolis proper population) = 4% They would need an equivalent of 133,000 people at a hockey game or sporting event. What are all these people doing?* *HS hockey games? Like those aren't also going on in Grand Forks? There really isn't "that much to do" in Minneapolis/St. Paul on a regular basis that isn't available in the RRV. If 19% of the actual entire metro of 3.5 Million went to a Gopher hockey game, Maricucci would have to hold 665,000. Its laughable a town that large can't find 10,000 fans every night to go to a hockey game...especially when you consider their student body at the University of Minnesota has more people than the entire town of Grand Forks.

That line fits parrots cay.

I'd guess he thought it would be a nice money making endeavor for him but ended up costing more than he thought. Poor planning all around. I don't think it was a scam.

Another one bites the dust. 75 jobs moved from GF to Fargo. http://www.grandforksherald.com/news/business/3950344-fedex-moving-airport-ramp-operations-grand-forks-fargo

I have a marketing idea...they could hold North Dakota's largest ever 50/50 raffle ticket. Say for example the winner would get at least $25,000. I bet that word would spread pretty fast and get a lot of people to a game. ....oh wait nevermind.

Stand corrected. First apparel in the Dacotah Legacy Collection with the Ben Brien logo.

I believe it's the first apparel released under the legacy brand. Throw in the timing. And I guess the topic seemed newsworthy enough to have a few pages here recently. And Ed also mentioned some new details about it going forward.

Pretty hot topic here and social media so only natural the herald will have an article.

I was close. "New Fighting Sioux merchandise for sale three months after nickname selection" http://www.grandforksherald.com/news/education/3949473-new-fighting-sioux-merchandise-sale-three-months-after-nickname-selection
