We will be in the Twin Cities this weekend and would like to get together w/ some friends to watch the game at an establishment somewhere in the Northwest Metro area. Anybody from that area know where the game may be on or has had Bison games on in the past? I thought our friends were going to call a Joe Sensor's in Plymouth (if there is such a place)?

Any other thoughts or suggestions? Thanks in advance.

I wish I knew I was going to be around this weekend. I live in the northeast area. There is a Joe Sensor's in Plymouth off of hwy 55, but there are some good places in Maple Grove. If you can get there early enough, Granite City but on a Saturday night that place gets packed. But Boston's is also a pretty good place and not nearly as busy. It's right by the Granite City. There also Dave & Busters, but again, that gets extremely packed on the weekends. But who knows, it's labor day weekend and the fair is going on, it might not be too bad.

Thanks.

I am familiar w/ those places, but didn't know if they would be willing to put a NDSU game on or if they had any history showing NDSU games.

We will be staying in Brooklyn Park and meeting some friends from Rogers. Maple Grove would be a good place to meet.

Anybody else have any expertise in that area of the Twin Cities?

Go to my neck of the woods in Albertville. D Michael B's will put any game on and they have a great selection of beers and their food rocks. Also, Space Aliens bar area is seldom busy and they'll also put any game up on their large projection TV is you ask them.

No, everybody in that pic is Gary Busey. But Capt'n Cat could almost double for him. Judging by his post on bisonville we know he's just as crazy as Busey.

Sensor's in Plymouth has put on Bison games before and I'm sure you could at least get it on a couple of TVs if you're there early enough.

Yeah, that is where we saw NDSU beat Oral Roberts in basketball that one year. Gully are you going to the game?

I'll be in Maplewood/Little Canada for the weekend, but I would possibly be up for a small commute to watch the game. Anywhere is the metro area could work for me.

The Roseville Sensor's could be a good location. Let me check around and get back to you.

I just talked to some manager chick from Senser's in Bloomington and she said they will have the game on if it is not "blacked out". I don't know what this chick is talking about really. I don't know how it could be "blacked out". Expected a little more solid information from Senser's I guess. They've usually been good about getting NDSU games on, but she really hedged that they would show it.

Also talked to a manager at Senser's Plymouth and she said she was going to get back to me to see if it would be on there. They had they game on their master list, but it had a "?" beside it and she was going to get back to me

I think I could break into Ft. Know easier than trying to get an answer on this:banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

Sure! I think we decided on meeting at the Minneapolis Eagle...It's just down the road from the Metrodome on Washington Ave. Be there at 5pm and don't forget to wear your UNI gear, as you will fit right in! If that is too busy, we'll be heading over the Saloon Fire Bar. You'll have lots of friends there too!

I could almost walk there! I'd be in for joining people anywhere in the north metro though.

Basically what I've heard from the Senser's folks is they won't know if they are getting the game until 15-20 minutes before game time. Like has been said in other threads, it shows up on 623, but they just don't know if it will available. My guess is that it will be broadcast and then each location can put it on if they want. Nebraska is playing at the same time on Sat and I know Nebraska fans flock to Sensers on gamedays so there will be competition for seating, TVs showing our game and which game audio is played in the bar.

Yeah, but they got a thousand TV's. They'll show the game. NDSU has a large presence in the TC and, if you show up with fat wallets, they'll blow you AND show the game.

I'm going. Only about 25 minutes from The Cap'n. If you want to meet the brilliant big Cat, you'll be there, too. Bring hot wives, girlfriends and daughters (over 14, please).

When is kickoff?

Wally

I don't believe anything was officially moved or one place was decided over another. Since there is no "official" viewing party location, it is up in the air on where the masses want to go.

With your take charge attitude and no nonsense decision making you'd be a great football coach. Ever thought about attaching yourself to a real program? You should apply for a job on the Bison staff.

I haven't called them. It has been very busy at work the last two days. Right now I plan on watching the game with my family and friends instead of going out to Sensors.
