They used to have a buffet joint in Minneapolis called the Viking. It was good. I wonder if it is still in business. The Viking? Closed down - everyone choked there.... 0-4 in Superbowls ZINGGGGGGG!!!!!

The Twin Cities were one of the most wonderful metropolitian places I had ever been to when I move there in 79...
its nothing like that now, compared to what it was....
my job the first 5 years there, I got to know the metro area REAL WELL.... saw its worst and saw its best....
nowadays there is a lot less of 'their best'
and its worse has grown quit a bit...

I moved to the Twin Cities from another schiethole, Youngstown, Ohio 30 years ago. I can count on my hands with several fingers left over the number of times I've been down town. It's good place to stay away from, especially for a bumpkin like me. We moved up to the Brainerd area and have never looked back.

When my wife was in tone of the St. Paul hospitals for a brain bleed I saw the crap there. From the hospital window I watched the dealers selling to cars that pulled up and bought. Right from there my 30-06 encore could have cut down the druggies. Schitt hole! Ed k

I've only been to the airport and the mall, I think it was a bit better than Nigeria by comparison Yes- everyone who could leave Nigeria and Somalia did, and is now working at the airport in Minneapolis.

I see it once a year, doing 80mph on I-94 at about 2am, blowing through without stopping on my way to NoDak for ducks. Seems like a fine place.

The 508 in the photo is one of the finest steakhouses in the city. Minneapolis for a northern city is doing a pretty good job. I go to several large trade shows there each winter. No flies on Minneapolis. Once a year we go to the RV show at the Convention Center.. But nobody goes downtown at night any more unless they're with a group and/or are heavily armed... I've never been to the "508", but if it beats "Mannys" it must be something... Too bad it's gone so far downhill - but that's mostly due to the former police chief Bosa who said, 'we don't have a gang problem in MPLS'... Yeah, right.. The stories I hear now from residents of MPLS say otherwise - and even the natives stay away from downtown after dark.. First girl I ever dated lived about 3 houses south of Dupont and Lake.. She was OUTstanding - and I still wonder if she's OK and doing well.. The TC was fun back then.. Now - not so much.. Sad, that.. But Milwaukee is completely safe at night . . . Of course! We go there every chance we get - especially the entertainment and night life after 10:00 pm... You should really try it some day!

Good deal, It truly is the armpit of WI and not a chance is it safer than MPLS.
