I've been to the RC several times over the years for various events. I recently attended a…read moregraduation here and it was a mess all around. The students were provided a limited number of tickets to ensure seating - they did scan tickets if you had them but it definitely wasn't enforced. The line to get in was chaotic. Despite there being multiple entrances to the center they only had 1 single line for hundreds of people - including the grads to enter. The security and staff did a poor job at managing the flow & logistically the security area was a waste. They were supposed to stop letting people in at 10:30 but didn't start moving the line until after 10:20. The gradation had a 11 start and started late (but that could have been more so the schools side, not sure). Most people were directed to sit upstairs. Very difficult to hear upstairs. Also when the graduation was over they locked us upstairs for over 20 min - preventing people from leaving. This was deeply concerning - for many safely reasons as it was already running over time and people had places to be. I will definitely avoid attending these types of events here.

Attended Annual Seminar offered by my employer for the 10th year here. We outgrew our previous…read morelocation. Stage and tables set up in the ballrooms for a few hundred people. Good AV setup, easy to see on projection screens, and audio is clear. Buffett Banquet services provided: sausage breakfast sandwiches, ham and cheese omelets, fruit yogurt parfaits, pastries. Coffee, juice, hot water/tea, Coke products, flavored sparking water. Tap Water pitchers on the individual round tables, along with jolly ranchers. **Sour candies for a Dental seminar! Hmm!?!** Plenty of women's restroom stalls for all these people. Clean and stocked. Easy, close parking across Kellogg Blvd. Take the skyway across to avoid traffic and unpleasant weather. However, coworkers and I carpooled in a Tahoe and barely fit under ceiling clearance. Be mindful if you have a Super Duty Deluxe Extended Cab Truck! You won't make it in.

Now if they would just get themselves baking some cevapi or burek in the back... The Bosnian Supermarket usually sells tickets for Bosnian and Serbian concerts here. Does the VFW ever bother to put these events on their calendar page? Nope. They don't seem to do much of anything, but I still give them props for allowing these obscure groups to grace their establishment for 2-5 hours every other month.

I love banquets of Minnesota located on Highway 65 in the Blaine area…read more It's very easy to get to off of Highway 65 (Central Avenue); and there is a tremendous amount of parking. This place reminds me the Medina ballroom, but in a more northern location... They have a great kitchen and they produce a lot of wholesome, good tasting food for a very modest price! This is a great place to host business events, and wedding receptions or other social gatherings ! Have a very friendly and efficient crew of people that work there. They have it dialed in pretty well. I recommend this banquet facility 100%!

This was my 3rd concert at U.S. Bank Stadium, and the acoustics are just not ideal. I don't know…read morewhat it is about this place, but it's definitely not my favorite venue to see a show. Aside from that, the venue itself is nice. We parked in the stadium ramp, and even though it was $65--which is absolute nonsense--it was great to go straight through security right from the ramp. The whole process was very smooth. We only waited about 20 minutes in line to get out afterward, which wasn't terrible. We were in Section 124, Row 21--great view!

We parked over by Union Depot since we were at an event earlier in the day there.

We love coming here for a saints game in the summer! It is an annual tradition for our family. We…read morepark in the tailgating lot usually and spend some time there before the game. Quick and easy walk to the field, just right around the corner. The kids usually don't like to spend time watching the game, they usually come for the dippin dots and the games. They have a kids area set up with a playground, games that include pitching, rock climbing and bounce house unlimited play for $10 and it usually includes a free hat. Lots of tasty food and beverages available for purchase all throughout. They have different events for the game and the ones we go to usually have food trucks and fireworks at the end. They also allow us to go on the field afterwards. It's a really fun family activity when the weather is nice!

I would recommend the strongest guys (or gals) sit and pedal in the front as that's where most of the pedaling happens lol. You can tell when those individuals are drenched in sweat at every stop hahaha. The driver is someone with the company but you provide your own bartender. You cannot bring anything with glass (no wine or beer bottles). But we were still able to start off with mimosas because I found that Sofia by Coppola Blanc de Blancs (sparkling wine) minis that come on a can! Most of the group was sweaty and drunk by the time the ride was over. Lol We even passed a strip club on the way with the tag line "100s of Beautiful Girls and 3 Ugly Ones". :-D

The road the park is off of, Butler Avenue , is extremely busy for a little two-lane road (everyone apparently uses it to get to highway 52), but once you pull in, it's like a sigh of relief. Nice big parking lot can accommodate lots of vehicles, if you are visiting by car. There's a big bathroom facility right there at the entrance (that's even open during the winter!) with additional tables and grills for picnicers. The lake is just a short distance away, and there's a short trail that goes all the way around it; very picturesque! Additional trails will take you through more landscape and trees (all paved and in great condition), and even over highway 52 into the adjacent park (Kaposia) and further to Simon's Ravine Trailhead, if you're up to it! Truly excellent to have the option to really stretch your legs and go some distance. If you're not here for hiking, there's also an impressively-sized kiddie park that's modern and has some fun unique play structures. (Legit, I wanted to go play on it and I'm 38 1/2.) I think it might've included a small splash pad, but I couldn't be certain in the winter. I spotted some tables with built-in chess/checkers boards, as well as some additional picnic tables. A pier that extends into the lake for fishers. By the kid park there's another large building with external-facing restrooms, and the building itself looks like it gets used for classes or something if you're there at the right season. Seriously, what a great resource for the neighboring communities! If I do move nearby, this would be an excellent spot to be able to relax, play, and exercise.
