No more get togethers at porky's in down town st. paul anymore. The business will be closing sunday, and sold.

I am very sad about this, because it was a spot I went to every weekend over the summer.

She is selling it even though they havent been losing money, she even quoted that they werent and that its just a business decision. Does she realize how many people this dumb business decision effects?

Isn't the light rail going right there? I'm sure the offer was more than enticing if that's the case.

I wouldn't be surprised if that was a major contributing factor in their decision. Pretty sure Menards will have the same reaction to parking lot use as the rest of uni has, and with the construction going on it's going to suck anyway,

Depending what time I get off work, I'd like to stop by. I'll give you a call Alan when I'm done with work to see if you're still there.
