The Team Recommends...


 
Fargo, ND.  A fine place if you like country music and drinkin' and drunken Fargo cowboys.  Monday nights are always good if its your birthday: Mason jar filled your favorite booze fer free!  Yee haw!
Fargo, ND.  If you're into swing and locally made micro brews, this is the place to be in Fargo.  It's slightly preppier than other bars, but with good friends and a bone-full of free booze on birthday night it's always fun.
Fargo, ND. Known as the home of the Hoover, and definitely known as the place that several of the team members will go if they want feel like doing something embarrassing in public.  Birthday Mondays feature a free bucket of booze that is cheaply refilled.  Unfortunately, the comfortable nature of the place tends to bring out people who probably shouldn't be allowed to drink in public.
Eden Prairie, MN. The time Mad Dog spent in Eden Prairie brought him and eventually Drew to the Water Tower. Like the OB above, Water Tower features it's own micro brews, and a fine array of cigars.  This place also serves probably the best Long Island Iced Teas in the Twin Cities served in carafes.
Shakopee, MN. Minnesota's answer to Disneyland is Valleyfair. With enjoyable rides and a decent water park, it's an excellent place for friends to have fun without necessarily being hammered off their asses!  In fact, being hammered and riding rides that take you from +4 to -1 G's is NOT recommended in any case.
Newsman Outdoor Field, Fargo, ND Summers in Fargo are a blast at the Redhawks game.  The Cobberitaville Team has been there on a number of occasions and rain or shine, it's always been fun.  For a reasonable price, you can rent the hot tub which is steps away from the beer garden, and the biffie.  Located along the left field lines, it's also prime real estate for catching a foul ball, or heckling a sweaty ballplayer...
Twin Cities, MN Every once in a while you just want some ribs, and you don't care who's watching you.  With 15 locations in the Twin Cities, Dave's has some of the best BBQ rib action available.  Not recommend for a first date.  Also Dave's and other rib joints are part of Rib Fest every summer in Fargo, ND where the white trash comes out in droves! Come for the Ribs, stay for the people...
Stillwater, MN. is a great place to spend a day or evening in the summer.  With it's location along the St. Croix river, it's an excellent place to take the boat for a cruise.  The town fills up on the 4th of July for nighttime fireworks, and traffic can get a little hairy but (I said Hairy Butt) it's still a really nice place to visit. 
Fargo, ND From Superbowls to night-before-graduation/birthday parties, a lot of cool things have happened at Playmakers.  Drew describes it as "very corporate," while Jorge is just impressed that there are TV's in the bathrooms.  Playmakers, for a bar, is a well lit place that frequently has good musical talent on stage, blackjack, and 30 TV's on site.  Luke Wilson suggests leaving your Packers jersey at home when there for Vikes/Pack games.
Minneapolis, MN. Within walking distance of the IDS Tower and skyway accessible, Rock Bottom (not to be confused with one of the Most Electrifying Moves in Sports Entertainment) features decent microbrews, good appetizers, and a good pool playing environment.  Beware however.  Bring a lot of money if you don't intend on walking out in under 30 minutes.  Mad Dogg and his co-workers easily ran up a $525 bar tab after a payday.
Twin Cities, MN. With 110 different brews to choose from, in several Twin Cities locations, the "Ole' C" is the place to go if you prefer variety.  Naturally, Mad Dogg still orders only Bud Lite.  Expect to pay money if you have a diverse taste in beer, or if you prefer bar appetizers.  You should not have to drink the same beer twice.  If you do, seek help.
Twin Cities, MN.  Champps is a nice lil sports bar place to hang out at.  With many locations across the country (and several in Minnesota) it has a certain corporate feel which may not appeal to those who live an examined life and take it too seriously.  For everyone else, it has your basic sportsbar feel to it.  Drinkage and food may be slightly more expensive than other places, but at least the service is better than Benchwarmer Bob's (NOT A RECOMMENDED LOCATION)!
Twin Cities, MN. City Billiards is a fine place in downtowan Minneapolis to go if you're ever in the mood to play a round of pool and drink a little. The bar is fully stocked and also has a lot of pool tables to play your game. It is very accomodating to groups and features a good number of hot waitresses. Also, if you're not into going to a public place with a lot of crowds on a Friday, this place is actually really nice. Mad Dog went there with his American Express friends and the crowd cleared out after 8!
