It’s high time we threw a MOB Winter Party.
The MOB has always thrown its parties at Keegans, largely because the group really was born at Keegans; Terry Keegan has always shown bloggers (and, let’s be honest, the Northern Alliance) a lot of love, and it’s only right to show it right back What kind of person doesn’t take care of his/her friends, especially friends who’ve been under attack by people as venal and stupid as Minneapolis’ city government?
And rest assured, this coming summer at Keegans, with the cigar patio open, will be fantastic, and I’m looking forward to throwing a MOB event and more than a few Blogger Trivia Nights at the Northeast Minneapolis hangout.
But given that it’s the dead of winter, and MOB parties tend to draw so well, it’s time to expand the horizons just a little. We have another establishment that’s on the plate here that not is not only run by one of the good guys, and not only faces a dismal, short-sighted, nanny-statist city government, but has a good-sized indoor party room that’s gonna be nice for a big, indoor party. They have no cigar patio – but face it, in this weather only North Dakotans sit on patios to smoke cigars.
More details later. But suffice to say, a MOB part is in the works, very very presently.
Stay tuned.
Only Iron Rangers sit outside to smoke AND drink a cold beverage. 😉
I bet it’s the place in Roseville with the funny radio commercial about the whiny little “progressive” boy getting hung up on.
Keegan’s is great, but due to it’s size and floor plan, and the rather boisterous nature of MOBsters I can’t hear a damn thing in there, which is why I prefer the patio (well, that and a good cigar of course).
Sounds like it’s time for a new Miracle Ear Kermit. These kids today and all their loud talking.
I’m not Kermit the Elder. Yet.
