7 Things You Can’t Do in MSP


Now that the friendly service desk at Seven Corners Hardware is a pile of rubble, here are seven other things you can no longer do in the Twin Cities:

  • Order the onion rings at Porky’s on University
  • Hit balls from the second floor of George’s Driving Range in Mendota Heights
  • Walk by the electric chair on the way to the first tee at Parkview Golf Club (above)
  • Listen to an in-store performance at Let in Be Records downtown
  • Drive your car across the Washington Avenue Bridge
  • Wash your hands after a plate of Al Baker’s Buffalo wings
  • Register to run the Grand Old Day 8K

What else do you miss?

UPDATE: Apparently you can still drive your car on the Washington Avenue Bridge – just not by driving down Washington from St. Paul…
