Minneapolis Run

Post by **JimPotts** » Sun May 19, 2013 8:40 pm

On Tues or Wed, I'm going to running up to Minneapolis on an errand. Was thinking of hitting someplace like Psycho Suzi's for lunch, maybe a brewpub or two, and stocking up on Surly.

I plan on being back home by suppertime.

Anyone interested in wasting a day for a couple hours of great beer and food?

Oh, if anyone wants me to grab some Surly, let me know before noon.

If you wouldn't mind grabbing me some furious that would be awesome.

I'll take a 4 pack of Abrasive or whatever you can find. Thanks!

I could only hit one liquor store (it was raining and I was transporting a video game), and they were out of Furious. I got some Cynic, Hell, Overrated, and Bender.
So let me know if you want some, and we'll work something out.

The more important question is which video game?

Followed closely by, can you spare a 4 pack of overrated?

A pretty rare, dedicated-cabinet Mr Do. I loved this game, back in the day, and the factory-version is pretty rare (most in the arcades were conversion kits for other games). The case is a bit rough, but it's got all the hard-to-find pieces intact.

Wow, don't even remember that game, Potsy "how old are you???"

I think it became a lot more popular after the video-game boom. It was really popular in parts of the country, but it didn't make it all over. Since it was mostly a conversion kit, it was often stuck in ugly, beat-up cabinets, so you might have seen one and passed right by it.

Now if I had picked up an Atari Football, then you could ask about my age....
