The only way to truly educate them is to get them to move here. Anything short of that is a waste of time.We can and should try and educate certain select individuals.

Dude, I remember the $1 power hour.Sadly the Refuge waitresses (all 2 of them) are just average and not that attentive. But they are nice. I've been going there since that place opened basically. The good ol days of $1.50 power hour!![]()
Hi, Legal.Whatever!![]()
Dude, I remember the $1 power hour.
I like the big knockers brunette chick. She gets the job done right, quick, and I like to stare - I think it's her smile...and something else. It's too bad she smokes. And it's been too long since I've been there.
Man, the only thing I remember being a dollar anywhere near there was Grandmas's at Seven Corners (IIRC) with the $1 Mich Golden Light bottles from 10-12 on Fri/Sat. A bunch of us would go down there, have a few, then at 11:45 we'd just order a case.
They'd literally bring the full case, still in the box (sans bottlecaps), to our table/area.![]()
I think the $1 power hour ended three years ago now, just before I got my shift switched so that I could actually get there in time for power hour. My coworkers would rub it in my face.Was it a $1? I don't remember because I was drunk, because it was a $1!![]()

Meh, I wouldn't say shes quick. But hey she does have big boobs so I can't really blame ya there. I know her name, but not the newish blonde that works there.
I've reverted to sitting at the bar exclusively now. Easier to tip in shots that way too. Drunk waitress = no service. I went Friday for the first time in months. Was pretty busy because of the Twins, and they have all HD TVs now.
Oh and them taking Newcastle off tap ****ed me off (bottle only now).
The reason it was such a good deal is because it was that cheap for everything. Beer, liquor, whatever.
$2.25 is still damn cheap and its the entire happy hour, not just the 1 hour power hour.
The Refuge is the dive bar sort of place, like JF and I have said, it's cheap and brunette waitress has a pair of nice hangers. Brother's is located just under the Refuge - physically, not pejoratively.This was maybe 7-8 years ago. I think as recently as 4-5 years ago the price was $1.50/bottle. The thing that surprised us was the times it was offered: I mean, weekend during primetime? That was amazing.
I do think Brother's still has some decent deals, and it's not a bad bar for just hanging out.
Which reminds me, gimme some good bar bars (not dance clubs like the friggin' Drink or Escape or other BS dresscode/high cover charge crap) around Target Center/Block E. This question is for everyone.
I know about Shouthouse, Keiran's, and Brother's. Other than that, a lot has changed since I went there on a regular basis. Cover charges are okay if they are only a couple bucks, but live music is almost a must, in that case.

I wasn't there, but I've been told Elixir has decent prices and a similar atmosphere. Bootleggers, if it's still going, is a good place. I don't know if they still run the deal, but during happy hour, they used to play a game of chance with all patrons - should you decide to go that route. You'd flip a coin, and you'd drink for free if you called it right but pay full price if you got it wrong. Otherwise it was two-fers. And regardless of that, they had a free buffet setup.
Bootleggers is 2 for 1's until 10 I think. Brent, you've been there too, the live music is usually decent there but the rap **** that they play between sets is brutally bad.
Is that all they do for specials now? There was a period a couple years ago when they weren't open during happy hour, opening for business at 8 or 9 instead. It struck me as a bar on the verge. I hope they're doing better now with Target Field open. All the bars in that area should be doing all right.Bootleggers is 2 for 1's until 10 I think.

Whenever I've been there it has been packed after about 11. It seems like they don't do a lot of business earlier, then tons of people show up later. It does seem like they are even busier now on twins game nights. The 2 for 1 special is the only one I've come across there, which isn't too bad, since it actually brings the price of a single drink down to a somewhat reasonable price.Is that all they do for specials now?

"Minnesota Nice" is a load of BS.They're Minnesota Nice... underneath they're like everybody else... looking for a good moment to filch your body for perfectly good organs.
