Well, folks, it seems Minot’s gone mad with merriment today. At Capone’s Birreria, they’re serving up a root beer float that’ll knock your socks off – and maybe your liver too. With 5.9% alcohol, it’s enough to make you see double, which might explain why they’re using three scoops of vanilla. I always say, if you’re going to drown your sorrows, might as well do it in style.
Meanwhile, the Blue Rider’s hosting a City Council meeting BINGO. Because nothing says “civic engagement” like turning local government into a game of chance. And if you win? A free drink! As if watching paint dry – I mean, city council proceedings – wasn’t intoxicating enough. They’re even throwing in free popcorn, probably to muffle the sound of collective snoring.
But wait, there’s more! The Blue Rider’s also hosting a craft night. Bring your own hobby, they say. I’d bring my wit, but I’m afraid it might be too sharp for the safety scissors. Remember, folks, whether you’re stitching, sketching, or just sipping, the key is to look busy enough that no one asks you to run for city council.
