SDSU? yeah..they are cool

Hope so too! Pete got a grant for the Food Truck - rented it out for several years before Steers owner Elias Dean eventually bought it to serve as a remote option for his brick and mortar restaurant that he started from scratch working his a** off so now he has options - problem with that? That food truck didn't cost GF taxpayers one dime. Stop acting like that was some big "LIBERAL" give-away - it was not! It worked out exactly like it was intended to do...and Elias has a great thing going with the food truck and Chino Latino. Bitching about every little thing does NOTHING for the greater good - DOING is the key and here it is.

He made 128 million dollars so far for a very mediocre career as a professional football player - HOORAY? Why are any of us worried about his future? He already won the "I can retire at 28 and never have to work a job for money again in my life" lottery. AGAIN - HOORAY? Sure his feelings are hurt no one gives a !@#$ about him now... guess what Carson? YOU ALREADY MADE 128 MILLION DOLLARS! It's called winning the lottery of professional a-hole athletes who don't think their greatness has been noted. IT HAS - YOU ARE - and you're unemployed but rich beyond most peoples means...how about taking some of the big $$$ and making a difference in the little peoples' lives. Dare ya....

Yeah that would be hilarious!

The Old Met building WILL BE a great microbrewery. Rhombus Guys just didn't have the mojo - agree they should stick to pizza and let someone else come in and take it over that building - they can keep the apartments above. CALL DREKKER in FARGO - we stayed at Brewhalla last weekend and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. Innovative vision, great marketplace and very creative brews! My wife who doesn't like "craft" beer couldn't get enough of their fruit-sours. We brought home a couple 4 packs as proof. If you brew good and different beers in a unique place people will come and having good food is just a bonus - RG could never pull that off in this location. No bad for them - just let some one move in who can make something of this amazing space!

I think in this case it was a matter of "if" the officer that ended it would have also gone down in the initial salvo - this would have had a MUCH more horrendous result. The shooter has free shots at whoever he wants. If he would have been mortally wounded but had the presence of mind to shoot the tanks of explosives he had in his car it would have been an explosion from hell. Naming the officer says "yes there was 1 person who made a huge difference here and it was this guy" and it was. His identity would have been easy to find out anyway. His performance and heroism was astounding - DW broke down many times talking about it - I agree. He is a true hero - it could have been SO much worse on so many levels.

Completely true! The beer and food was never really remarkable. The ironic thing is the guy that started Half Brothers was the first and original brewmaster at Rhombus and struck out to start his own business and succeeded! Drekker has done REALLY WELL in Fargo also... https://brewhalla.co/ Staying there for a birthday weekend getaway - heard it's really cool. Rhombus did a great thing repurposing the Old Met downtown. That building is a historical gem and hopefully another micro brewer will step in and take it over.

always trust the OAPER!

Hattons' own Bonita's Chicago Sausage frozen pizza was probably the GREATEST frozen pizza EVER as anyone who ever had it would attest. The old owners eventually sold out to Jimmy's Pizza and they combined brands and sadly ditched that pizza. It was amazing though. Jimmy's is OK. Have an Up North in the freezer but didn't realize they were made by the company in Hatton. Will check that out...

Thought that was highly bizarre also.

No further questions your honor KFC sucks. If you want decent fried chicken try the Boss! Hands down best fried chicken in town and their pies are great also. Discovered them staying in Sioux Falls years ago - plus they deliver late.

Stopped in the other night - not bad. They seem like a "healthy" lunch place mostly but are open until 7pm. We went with light appetites not knowing what to expect. I ordered the "Sail Bowl" - medium - a mixture of many healthy ingredients with a base of frozen or partially thawed mush. I guess you're supposed to mix it all together - it was good! THAT being said... FYI - Don't forget your wallet! Medium cups were $12-$14. More substantial than what it seems - not QUITE enough to be a stand alone meal on its own. Good luck to them - bad visibility spot for 32nd. But again GOOD LUCK!

Drove by last week and was blown away seeing it half down - RIP 215A! Moved in on a weekend when it was hotter than f*ck and remember going to every store in GF looking for a box fan - finally found one at the KMart (also long gone) and had some relief. Had some hometown friends in West - we went to the old theater on Washington that eventually was home to WDAZ to see WarGames and enjoy our first weekend in the big city! I remember the old (legit) tunnel system underground where you could go and trade in your crappy bedding for fresh sheets but not until a couple months in and the sheets were pretty stinky when I finally discovered it (lol) Antennae TV only - no cable or internet yet - got hooked on watching General Hospital because it was on when I was done with class for that freshman year because we only got a few channels. Got a few knocks on the door from random RA's because they thought I was "cooking" in my dorm room. I had a pizza oven I used on weekends going to the old VD on campus that was in the basement of the building across from the Union - learned to open a window from that. One time I came back early from a holiday with some ditch weed a buddy gave me. Smoked it - got a headache instead of a buzz and then had a knock on the door shortly after. I bullshitted some story about how my "native american" roommate had burned some sage earlier to purify the dorm room but he had left and the RA bought it. My actual roommate was a computer nerd from Stillwater. ahh memories

FANTASTIC! and you are???

No - this has been a project in the works in GF for three decades or more. Mayor Bo has able to push it over the top because of infrastructure money from Bidens "Build Back Better" program was available. Kramer and Hoeven had nothing to do with pushing forward. One of them was MORE than happy to show up for for the photo opp last week. Kramer is actually okay on that since I think he DID vote for the infrastructure package - Hoeven did not - and also didn't show up. Empty Suit? PPOOOFFF!

Bunch of drunk Shriners in town this weekend - they're doing a parade downtown from EGF down Demers to the Masonic Lodge at 11am. More relevant this topic than a library arguement - HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!

As I'm sure you're aware the ND legislature has CLAMPED DOWN on local library's because they are the main purveyors of pornography and FILTH in our humble state! I'm QUITE sure there are no OTHER sources of porn and filth anywhere else BUT local libraries so let's consider this problem SOLVED and MOVE ON! NO NEW LIBRARY'S - EVER!! BURN BOOKS because the last time a kid read a book was... PS - okay WAIT - there's something called the internet? some WORLD WIDE WEB? I'm sure the legislature will be all over that in 2 years...give me a break

Hey Thielen signed with less credentials - Good Luck Garett! NOW is your time to shine! Make us proud (but we are already)

Oh - a Forum alum? well then you should know.... It's not a matter of a city "SUPPORTING" wdaz - it's a matter of a business providing a product worth something to people the advertisers are willing to spend money on knowing PEOPLE are watching to reach the masses with their product. WDAZ had that when they had a local news crew (on air and on the scene). When Forum/WDAY decided to shut down the Grand Forks broadcast they basically said "F*ck YOU" to Grand Forks" Not surprisingly - most GF advertisers have also said "F*CK YOU" to Forum too but also killing the Herald by proxy. They're working out of a strip mall for crying out loud. THANKS FORUM! You accomplished your goal and made former interns believe no one in GF "supported" wdaz and we can all depend on Twitter and social media for news. - FANTASTIC!

AGREE India Palace is great and they are nice people (ALSO talked to the owners before Punjab opened) but the difference is they had no interest in opening a GF location and Punjab did! So I'll go with them - because they did! Passage to India also has a great buffet in Fargo.

He's a good youth baseball coach for the community from what I hear - he should stick with that. Otherwise he was just a paranoid embarrassment for people just passing through the community who might tune into local radio for a flavor of the community and KEEP ON DRIVING for his horrendous idiotic rants. I don't know anything about this new guy they have but I've basically turned off KNOX as a local talk source and this only makes GF more of a new desert - and that's the REAL PROBLEM! The Herald has moved into a strip mall. WDAY is only interested in promoting how great Fargo is for every reason under the sun. Don't support Forum Communications on any level if you live in GF!. They have said "F*CK YOU" to Grand Forks - we should say the same. Leighton and Fox reactions TBD??? How about standing up for GF as a COMMUNITY without worrying about the politics? That's what Fargo does and it's what we need to do...the question is how do we do it?
