Well from what I can tell a lot of people haven't logged onto their mingle2 for months so I guess I will throw this out their and see what kinda things show up. Their is a lot of events and places to visit that are awesome attractions in which many people that live her have not even visited in their out state. So seeing their is not many people willing to talk on this site maybe they would be interested in checking out the wonderful world of Minnesota in their spare time.

So this is what you need to do. Let us know of the best place you have ever been to in Minnesota or a hang out place you enjoy and why. Add a lot of details as to why you enjoy it and why others might also. Remember the options are limitless so don't be shy.

Some of the places I enjoy in Minnesota

-Two Stooges Sports Ball and Grill- Located in Fridley
Some of the reasons I enjoy it is because it is close to where I live, has a full bar, full arcade, darts, karaoke, billiard tables and has many other attractions . Many of the staff are very friendly and is a nice place to just relax and meet up with other people. I enjoy stopping every once in a while for lunch and a few games of pool also.

-Science Museum- Located in St. Paul
Awesome place to learn about all kinds of things. You can really waste a full weekend here. Many different attractions throughout the year and a place where you can go on a date where you can have a ton of things to look at and talk about.

-Source Comics & Games- Located in Saint Paul
Now not everyone is into D&D or Role-playing or even board games. But if you are this place is great. I have been here a few times and has a lot of things going on throughout each month. Great way to meet others that share your interest even if you are not into this sort of thing. I found it very fun to just watch others and have had some very interesting conversations with a few. For the record "NOT a good place for a 1st date" lmao I know a few of you are thinking it but no...wrong!!!

-Outpost 2000 & Beyond- Located in Coon Rapids
Pretty much same thing as the Source but located very close to where I live on a smaller scale. The age group ranges from young to over 50. I know it's hard to believe but their is actually a lot of women at this location that enjoy board games, card games, and video games. Fun little place to share you interest with others while able to talk a bit more freely.

-Shortstop Bar & Grill- Located in Coon Rapids
OK if you enjoy "BURGERS" you will LOVE this place!!! They slow cook them so if you are in a hurry not the place for you. But if you have the time they will blow your socks off. They have the standard attractions of any bar but the funny thing is they do not promote the bar at all. All repeat customers and here say gets people in the door at this place. The drinks are stiff with the price very low compared to many other bars. Pretty standard happy hour and a very nice interior. Just in case you try to look for this place it doesn't even have a sign on the building letting you know your at the right place. So good luck finding this little gem in Coon Rapids. I would say great for a 2nd or 3rd date but I would recommend going during 12pm - 4pm so it's not so busy and you can chit chat with each other. And try not to get wasted and make a bad impression. Save that for date 5 or 6. lmao

All right that is just some of the attractions off the top of my head I will try to add more as I remember them. I'm off to enjoy all the fresh snow. And remember Enjoy the State, just because you are stuck here due to the snow and it's cold out doesn't mean their are not places to enjoy. So go out and live it up!
