Sonic in Elk River in July is music to my ears. That means I should be able to eat there by sometime in September.

Jon,

I think the STrib’s guild contract requires fast food stories to be reported by guild members. Sit-down restaurants and coffee shops are OK for freelancers.

Camden Yards had Guinness. It was probably around $.70 an ounce.

Yes, I still bought one.

Oh yeah, and the Dome’s hot dogs are far superior to Camden’s hot dogs. Also, what’s with the lack of hot dog condiment stations? I mean, the Dome’s got the sweet setup with the relish and onions out along with the ketchup and mustard. I don’t want a freaking packet of relish, I want to slather that [redacted] on there. Same goes for the onions…

It just makes it seem even more like you’re getting screwed over when you paid $5.50 for a hot dog and you have to grab a bunch of packets…

There is a difference between “Beer” prices and “yellow-colored-mildly-alcoholic water” prices.
I bet “beer” doesn’t cost $.27/ounce.

The Twins should have a college night on Thirsty Thursday’s when Beer’s would go for something like $2. It would give me a good reason to go to games on Thursday’s and to call in sick to work on Friday’s. Plus then I would have a valid reason to carry around my old College ID.
