Walker on the Green: Artist-Designed Mini Golf
|
|
|
At first thought there wouldn't seem to be much of a correlation between modern art and mini golf. Whereas the former seeks to invigorate with innovative designs and abstract concepts, the latter is often considered a leisurely activity with an artistic aesthetic most charitably described as...

Weekly Happy Hours
|
|
|
Although many restaurants close over the years, few are forced to do so because of fire. This is what happened at Blackbird's original 50th and Bryant location in 2010. A benefit party and a new lease later, the pleasant little restaurant has flourished in its new digs at 38th and Nicollet. The... More >> |

Clybourne Park
|
|
|
The Guthrie continues its anniversary season with an explosive, award-winning satire on America's uneasy relationship with race. Bruce Norris's award-winning Clybourne Park is positioned as a response to Lorraine Hansberry's A Raisin in the Sun. The play connects two acts separated by 50 years... More >> |

Lance Armstrong's Steroid-Pumped Comedy Revue
|
|
|
If there's one thing we've learned over the past few years, it's that making sports stars into heroes is a no-win game. At best, they'll outstay their welcome in the spotlight, tarnishing the hard work of their career. At worst, we learn embarrassing facts about their personal lives (hello,... More >> |

Blingo
|
|
|
A night of bingo may sound pretty square, but Blingo brings out the big pimpin', glamorous side of the game. How? Rather than being held in a cold, stale church basement, this ongoing party takes place in fun bars like the 331 Club and the Triple Rock Social Club. So bring some friends, order... More >> |

Karaoke Night
|
|
|
The outside of U Otter Stop Inn features a mural of a dapper otter decked out in a top hat, suit, and bow tie, his googly eyes and martini glass saluting patrons knowingly. Step inside and you will find a long bar filled with disco balls, giant football helmets, and electric rodents drinking... More >> |

Vegas Lounge Karaoke
|
|
|
If you were to guess the vibe of the Vegas Lounge based solely on the name, you might expect to find a bar with a retro "Rat Pack" style. But you would be wrong. This is not what you will actually find at the Vegas Lounge in Northeast, though, oddly enough, one night I did see a dead ringer for... More >> |

$50 Pyramid
|
|
|
Talk-show host, MC, and barroom ringmaster Ian Rans is putting a new spin on the ubiquitous bar trivia with his riff on the classic game show The $10,000 Pyramid. The original series, which aired for a decade and a half, pitted two contestants against one another in a challenge to guess words... More >> |

The Bungalow
|
|
|
Friday night gets all the love, Wednesday night has its nudge-wink "hump day" cachet and everyone hates Mondays so much that there's no choice but to go out and wash that start-of-the-week ennui away. But what about Thursday, the day of the week where people are most likely to put... More >> |
