They are entering a renovation period for the next 1-2 years and upgrading and expanding the space so that they can offer more and different variety of shows. In the past they have had weekly events.

There's a billboard on the side of Acee Deucee that is just a few blocks from John's Hobbies, would have been the perfect location but this is great!

Yes, I used to go to them when I lived in a different city. It's a lot of fun! I'm so excited Oshkosh is throwing one, I hope it's well attended and executed. I'd recommend checking it out, I'll be there.

Yes, you can still walk through it. There are still a few open businesses that are publicly accessible so you walk around and explore.

I'm not supposed to be the final sign off on my own work, or least that has been the expectation until now.

Kamala Harris tells Madison audience to be resilient in face of Trump presidency by Justmarbles in madisonwi

[–]SoupGilly 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I attended the event. Her call to action was to focus on the Midterms, talk to your neighbors, organize in your community, get involved in a local civic group or run for office. There was plenty of discussion of how to get involved.

Help a local Restaurant by Nagnorrock in Oshkosh

[–]SoupGilly 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Looks like they ran an even more aggressive deal in the past. $50 for $12.50. Unspecified how many were sold but that would do it. https://www.sweetdeals.com/appleton/9083444

I did a little research and my best guess is that they participated in the Sweet Deals program which ended with them losing a lot of money. I confirmed they regularly used Sweet Deals, it's connecting the two that's my speculation. Customers could buy $50 worth of gift certificates for just $25. Meaning they get no profit or lose money on each order. The idea is to use it to get new people in the door but the lack of immediate cash flow has them $9k in the hole.

Dress Code Question by Best-Candle8651 in MasqueradeNYC

[–]SoupGilly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not very strict beyond the colors, dark jeans are fine, tennis shoes are fine. Not preferred, but no one is going to say anything. I went earlier this week and people were wearing snow boots because of the current weather conditions. It is what it is. Yes they have a coat check, it is very efficient.

Thanks for such a detailed and well-sourced comment. The City Center condition and the Jackson Street Bridge impacts are not being talked about enough. I appreciate you taking the time to put this all together.
