The Free Market Will Find A Way

Bars and restaurants are struggling with Minnesota’s fairly draconian pandemic restrictions.

People are pretty ingenious though – especially when their livelihoods are at stake.The “Black Hart“, a bar down by Saint Paul‘s new soccer stadium, hobbled both by the quarantine restrictions and the canceling of major league soccer, is…well, adapting:

The bar’s inaugural drag delivery staffer will be Dina Delicious (pictured above). From now on, orders placed online between 4 and 9:30 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays will result in a drag delivery.

As the weather warms up, I would expect various Gentlemens clubs and Hooters to come around to similar ideas.

    Ha! Well, Mitch, I might test that Hooter’s theory out today. After all, it’s supposed to be 70 degrees.

    They won’t be taking the light rail to deliver. From their website:

    Use Metro Transit for essential travel only.
    Metro Transit is operating a reduced service schedule.
    Bus service is suspended 11 p.m. – 4:30 a.m.
    Light rail service is suspended 9 p.m. – 6 a.m.

    Between April 20-27, buses will replace Blue & Green Line trains.

    Who’d have thought Mexicans were more innovative than Americans? They had this idea a month ago. But don’t worry, regulators are working hard to keep girls out of homes and put them back on the street corners, where they belong.

    Sort of related, this has to do with the lock down and virus:

    Bud Grant is still coaching.
