Should Jamestown be accepted into the NSIC?

There is a Taco Johns a couple blocks from the high school I went to. Before a basketball game freshman year a couple teammates decided to eat the 6 pack and a pound meal before the game. That surprisingly didn't go over well for them. For those not familiar its a 6 pack of hard sheel tacos and a pound of potato oles.

Oof - best case scenario that's a dense meal to take into a basketball game. Worst case scenario... ouch. I like Taco John's though. Handful of times we'd go grab a bag of Oles. One of the best creations.

Eating as a HS boy remains undefeated.

We would frequent the local Pizza Ranch buffet during two-a-days back in HS. Not sure how we survived that afternoon/evening practice after loads of buffalo chicken pizza for lunch, but we did. Sure wish their buffet was $6.36 again for lunch. It was the good ol days and we didn't even know it pre-Funzones, Kirk Cousins sponsorships, and nationwide expansion.

We used to go to New Ulm a lot - lunch at Bonanza, then across the street to Target or HyVee, finish up at Marketplatz Mall, and maybe stop into Nicklasson Athletic as a treat. Despite the mall essentially being dead - downtown is still a very vibrant area. I was there Saturday and it looks like they dumped a ton of money into the ballpark. It looks great.

We'd make trips to our shop over there for work - rule was get the work done as efficiently as possible so we could take our lunch at Taco John's, then stop at Menards on the way out of town. Fun memories.

I shop at the New Ulm Walmart often. Nice place. When it first opened you could shoot a cannon down the aisles, no one was there. Not any longer. New Ulm also has a Cashwise on the north end and a HyVee at the south end. Oh, an Aldi close to Walmart. Same in Hutch- Aldi and Walmart and across the street from each other, with Cashwise a little further north.

This thread is glorious

I agree. Who can't like a thread that's over 200 pages long, started talking about Jamestown membership before they were members, and talks about Minnesota high school hockey?

Nice find! Sometimes those small town Walmarts have the deals - I have a few favorites I like to stop at on my road adventures. Kind of like a "mini-destination."

Usually stop at the New Ulm Walmart if I need something as I'm passing through on my way to Mankato - it's easier to get in and out of and not as cramped. Sioux Falls has one way on the north side that I like too - though it doesn't count as a "small town" Walmart.

I have been to the Jamestown Walmart several times. They had chocolate creme horns half off one time. I bought them out- like a dozen packages. Delicious.

It's the Jamestown of threads.

:)

This thread is like a fairy tale. Sometimes, it is Rumpelstiltskin spinning straw into gold. Other times, it is like Sleeping Beauty falling asleep after being pricked by a spindle on a spinning wheel. We just have to wait for the Handsome Prince to wake her up. Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you are going to get. Wait, that is from a different story...........

My new rap name is Slim Jimmy, and I preach about the mean streets of Jamestown.

Once I saw a guy jaywalk and wrote half an album about it.

My hit single is called "We Have a Walmart" or something I don't know. I'm just bored today.

I wonder how often people from other conferences come into this thread and are utterly confused by the conversations.

Other conferences would be jealous to have a 222-page thread of discussion in just over 25 months....

I describe this thread as the junk drawer of D2. You know the one that you go to find a shoelace, an old toothbrush, or some string. Most of it isn't worth saving but every once in a while it comes in handy.

What do you mean, from OTHER conferences? Most people from the NSIC become confused when they enter this- kind of the Phantom Zone from Superman.
