Everything went fine. Except the game’s result. Thanks for checking.
Be careful driving through small towns.
'Everything has gotten worse.' Violent crime is surging in rural Iowa, fueled by the state's meth and mental health crises

You just posted a Des Moines Register article from 6 years ago.
It’s probably gotten better since Biden took office…

I'm surprised Jacob is still mayor. Just a couple years ago they chanted "go home Jacob, go home" and also "shame". Rioters wanted him to abolish the police.
Just another night in the twin cities.
Tough to watch what once was a decent city go to shambles.
I just checked in with some friends who live in Minneapolis. They've been regulated to the underground shelters but are still fighting to survive. They're doing OK but can only rely on the advice of the great people who post in Iowa message boards to pull them through this horrific time they're experiencing. The city is disintegrating before their eyes, in fact, some of the people reporting on the disintegration also had their eyes disintegrating while looking at it.
Just overall... ****ing Minneapolis is probably dead, they lost the war, 35W will never be the same, it's going to be even more boring whilst driving to Canada now.

I have several friends/former co-workers who live in/near Minneapolis (for instance, St. Louis Psrk) and they say that over the last 10 or 15 years some crimes, such as thefts, have gone up noticeably. However, I assume that’s likely the case in some other larger cities.
That’s good your son had no issues while going to the U of M. I had two former co-workers who had kids that attended the U of M. One also had no significant issues while on campus, while the other had a son that got mugged/had his wallet stolen.
Apparently, you didn’t ride that light rail system later in the evenings?
I did a couple times at 8-8:30ish if my flight times required it. Not late at night though.
I was there for that. Followed up by kick in nuts. Rinse repeat.
Wolves now doing the same. I have no emotional attachment to Wolves but what is happening to them is “So Minnesota”.
I was up in the Twin Cities this weekend. My oldest lives up here during the summer and we have several family friends here. Most of them live out in 3rd ring suburbs in the North Metro. They all agree Minneapolis has gone to hell and they avoid it now. Just stay out in the suburbs where there is plenty to do.
Have a friend that lives in Brooklyn Park, a second ring suburb, on the good side (north) of 610. If you know the area you know what I mean. They had their house broken into a few years back and their TV stolen while they were in the house sleeping. Blew my mind that something like that would happen in his neighborhood but that is the current state of things there. He said he's sick of it and would like to move to Wisconsin (Hudson Area).
So, for those of you that are saying "nothing to see here" you are wrong. It's still a great place but it is trending in the wrong direction and is in need of some changes. #1 thing being getting the loons out of control of the inner cities and bringing back some law/order & stability.

Second hand anecdotes are fun
Well, since I was physically there these would be first-hand accounts.
You were there when the house was broken into? I must have misread your post as I read it as that story was told to you by a friend. My mistake.
Are you capable of following this tiny sample of what life is like in that metro?
Ok, no. I was not there at the time of the burglary. But seriously, this isn't a Ferris Bueler case where I heard it from a friend who, heard if from a friend who, heard it from another. So no, I don' consider this anecdotal.
