We do Pizza first and then just expand what we want to rate.
I don't see that as a potential disaster at all! Good idea!
Come-on Gov's be a creator of solutions
We could have HSstupidtalker drive. We would just drive in circles and never get any place. But then we still have a bus full of beverages, we can't be edited for talking the politics and religion of hockey, and we just order delivery.
IT COULD HAPPEN! IT WOULD BE LIKE A DREAM COME TRUE!

Sorry you just spoiled it, might as well bring boogie, and HOF too!

those two could be grill ornaments and the bus driver is the one that gets the most shet anyway. All the Wizards of Odd would be exposed at once
nothing wrong with good old colonial public humiliation
Ok Ok - I'll adjust the meds so my optimism fades

Dave's Pizza in Bemidji is great, it's the first delivery pizza I had as a kid and when I took my boys back there about five years ago or so it was still as good as I remembered.
Charlie's Pizza in Little Falls is good too.
I discovered Uptown Pizza in Minneapolis when I was living near it, it's on the corner of Grand and Lake Street. You can only get takeout or delivery but they've got good crust, sauce and toppings. In the past I've taken my boys into Minneapolis, picked up a pizza there and then driven over to Lake Calhoun and enjoyed the pizza while hanging out at the lake.
Funny you mention Rocky Rococo's Lee, I like it but one of my food snob roommates once dismissed it with a six word putdown, something like "Limp crust, weak sauce, lame toppings", that we still laugh about today.

The only two Sammy's buffets we've had are downtown Duluth and West Duluth. The West Duluth buffet rocks, especially on Monday when they put those cajun chicken wings out there. Also a better selection of pizzas.
Overall, our favorite Sammy's is the one up in Hibbing. Better atmosphere than the Duluth locations. Same outstanding flavor. It's where we stop on our annual Iron Range autumn leaf-watching drive.
Whoever posted M&K in Warroad is insane...horrible, bad toppings on soggy cardboard crust
I used to live across the street from Sammy's in Duluth's Lakeside...fond memories, great pizza. The only thing that separated me from Sammy's was an outdoor rink
Also great Duluth pizza was Pizza Luce, some interesting combo's...mashed potato pizza was surprisingly very good.

Ah, a Portman product, eh? The current-day Sammy's on 47th actually used to be the site of Oberg Pharmacy, when Sammy's was two blocks over on 45th. Remember the old Bridgeman's across the avenue from Sammy's? Which used to be a hardware store, can't remember the name.
If you were around back in '69 or so, there was a place on 48th called Diamonds East which had some of the best ribs known to man.
That neighborhood has changed over the years, but Lakeside & Lester Park spark nostalgia every time I drive out there.

1969 was way before my time on 47th, but there was an ice cream shop across the street from Sammy's. Don't think its a bridgeman's anymore though. Lakeside was a nice place to live though, like a whole different town...
