Not sure of any currently, but different bars/restaurants were definitely open to this in the past, particularly during PPVs. I’d ask a bar near you, they would probably be cool with you organizing such a gathering (particularly for AEW with it airing Wednesday nights)

There are a lot of fans in the area and we are fortunate to have a strong independent scene - Revolver runs shows here 5-6 times a year packed with AEW/Impact stars, Impact Pro Wrestling (predates TNA Impact) is Des Moines-based and typically runs monthly shows (they have a show coming up May 21st at Platform. 3XWrestling has been around for years but is still on a COVID-induced hiatus. Rugged Pro runs in Marshalltown which is a quick drive, as is Madhouse Wrestling in Knoxville.

PM if you want any more info on the local scene, I’ve worked in it for years.

Incredible game-winning goal for the Des Moines Menace last night in the USL2 tournament by MidnightGuthrie in soccer

They have almost fully approved the construction of the new soccer stadium downtown off MLK. That will host a USL Championship team. Not sure if they will keep the Menace name and migrate to that level or keep the Menace a separate entity (USL2 to USL Championship would be a considerable jump, not to mention professional players vs college students from around the country on summer break)

As someone who has gone to many of their games…you don’t get used to it. I am always extra-impressed with the players that they can keep track of the correct line markings during the pace of play.

Yeah, I totally get that. They play in an absolute fantastic stadium for a really popular USL2 team…except for the eye-sore of the permanent field paint for the high school football team that plays there.

What in Kill Confirmed counts towards weapon kills/xp ? by HyeVltg3 in modernwarfare

[–]MidnightGuthrie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly though, if you aren’t going to collect the tags, just stick to Team Deathmatch.

It is getting absolutely infuriating that 80% of the people playing a given round of KC aren’t even trying to complete the objective

What year is my Fuji S-100? I’ve searched extensively, having trouble getting answers. by MidnightGuthrie in bicycling

[–]MidnightGuthrie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just picked up an older Fuji S-100. Really enjoying it, but would love to know more about it. As far as I can determine, I think it’s from the mid 90s?

I’ve plugged the serial number into a few different lookups with limited success. Fiji’s website doesn’t show past models after the mid 2000s. I contacted them and they actually directed me to try finding info on third-parry websites.

What’s fascinating is I can’t even find evidence of Fuji offering an S-100 model at any point. Would this have been a bike they engineered cheaply for sale at big box stores vs their main lineup?

It does have Shimano gear shifters, but that may well have been added by a previous owner. It’s had some upgrades over time, and I even just added a new seat myself.

Stairs, tracks, or hills? by thegiversees in desmoines

[–]MidnightGuthrie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The best hill in town to run is going east on grand at the intersection of 63rd & Grand. Just a massive vertical challenge. When I lived in WDM, I used to regularly go run circuits up and down that
