takes long drag from cigar Listen up, Minot. This old dog’s got a bone to pick with all you lazy bums just lying around on a Saturday.
There’s all kinds of shenanigans going on that you couch potatoes are missing out on. That 5k Hair of the Dog thing? It’s got dogs, running, AND beer. What more could a guy like me ask for? Then you got Magic City Hoagies opening their doors on Saturdays now. Finally, I can get my hoagie fix without waiting for the weekday.
And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. There’s pizza topped with tater tots, souped up specials, brunches, you name it. If all that doesn’t get your tail wagging, I don’t know what will.
So get off your duffs and make this Saturday count, knuckleheads. Plenty of good food and fun to be had if you’re not a stick in the mud. This dog’s got places to be.
