    Do you like food? Do you like to drive Subaru's?

    If your answer to either of the above is "no", GTFO.

    In lieu of the now defunct Friday meets and the challenge of drumming up attendance to a second weekly without having the draw of Friday night University Ave shenanigans, I'm starting a monthly "Drive n' Dine" event with a short cruise to or from a destination restaurant.

    The Friday meets at Firestone on University Ave are back! I'm still going to keep this running, the rest of this post still applies...

    The intention is a relaxed event where people can enjoy an afternoon trying out the best local favorite eateries while shamelessly ribbing other Subaru enthusiasts.

    This will take place on the second Sunday of every month. I'm choosing Sunday's because I like bloody mary's and the best bloody mary bars are to be had on Sunday morning/afternoon. Well, that and it lends itself to low-key events and light traffic for a cruise before or after.

    I'll be there even if it's just me because cheeseburger. I don't expect a huge turnout for the first couple events at least. Let me know if you're interested just the same so I have an idea if I should be making reservations.

    Also... it won't be burgers every time. We just happen to have an abundance of good burger joints around here. I'm thinking we'll do "themes" that last for a few months and then switch it up. Possible themes would be pizza, tacos, dim sum, bloody marys, pho, bbq, what-have-you.

    In that case, refer to line #3. :D

    I have no idea what you're on about...

    Indeed.





    We can probably suffer a porsche or something if we really, REALLY had to.

    Foodz? Yes plz.

    Chance of making it to a Tuesday meet: 0.1%
    Chance of making it to a Sunday meet: 1.0%

    So bam, right there, 10 fold increase in my chances of making it!

    Great idea! I'd love to go to these, but my schedule just changed from being off every Sunday to working every Sunday. And it's a 13 hour shift :(. Talk about bad timing for me.

    I would be interested in coming along to these, probably not the first one though. You mention cruise, would that mean meeting somewhere and driving to EP in a group then?

    Ok Ok... LONG STORY

    Topless clubs serve alcohol... And titties rubbed all over my head and face stimulates hair growth in many areas.

    Bottomless clubs don't serve ETOH and offer a peak at something I will never have enough money to obtain.

    SHORT STORY

    Topless: ETOH+ Hair growth= WIN WIN
    Bottomless: ETOH + dik tease= EPIC FAIL

    Can't lose! Is this the thread to tie in with the dead hookers in trunk thread? People may need to choose wagon or sedan before cruise.

    I'd be scared if rubbing them on your head made your hair grow. Even though we would have a multi million dollar secret!

    Screw Lions tap, there will be more than our fair share of burger places on the way to Vegas.

    Also, I am most likely in. I just depends on if the multi-billion dollar company I work for can pull their collective heads out of their ass's.

    Holy wow....ok

    I'll be there for the first Sunday, flying solo since the Subie lover up there has to work.

    Surely old man - I'm with you! Bloody Mary's are a favorite of mine. You can expect me there every week rating each bloody.

    For the rest of you boys talking titty- ill be down for the Duce Duce here in MPLS. Haha

    Topless not so hot dancers with alcohol = disgustingly good time

    I have been doing this with a few friends as a weekly "Sunday ritual" for about 2 months now. Today coincidentally LIONS TAP was the location of choice :D. :facepalm: = for not suggesting it to MNSubaru... +1 for SurlyOldManMN.
