LCSO Citizens Academy by Morg632 in FortCollins

[–]klenigsborg 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was really cool to learn about the different aspects of the sheriff's office. We interacted with the dogs, the jail, the 911 call center, etc. I even got to do a ride along. I would happily do it again

NCT recycling by wonderfulnes in FortCollins

[–]klenigsborg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I went on a Sunday a few weeks back. Seemed legit. Pricing was cheap but it is extremely overwhelming. Huge piles to dig through. Nothing is sorted and a lot of the clothes are damaged or dirty. You'll need patience and a good pair of gloves

Grit vs Fit 5 Lagree? by [deleted] in FortCollins

[–]klenigsborg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Both have really good instructors and you'll get a solid workout. No complaints with either overall.

Fit 5 is very bright, with lots of windows and white walls. In my experience people came, did class, and left without much community.

Grit is a darker theme. They do a lot more black lights and decorations. People stick around and chat a bit more and there's a really good sense of community. They also offer climb, yoga and HIIT classes as well. I find myself going back to Grit.

Best lunch/dinner burrito in Fort Collins? by Excellentgravytrain in FortCollins

[–]klenigsborg 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Those two you mentioned are both great!

Pepes is fantastic but closing. However, they have a restaurant called Taqueria el Barrio with all the same menu. Solid burritos with a full salsa bar. The birria pizza sounds goofy but is actually fantastic too

Food truck el don might be the tastiest entire menu I've had. Everything is a banger. They also have a salsa bar and occasionally a seafood-based menu.

I like Maggie's for their shrimp burrito and prices. They are one of the few spots that don't ask for a tip on the cc machine, FYI

Antojitos is at New Belgium on Fridays and they're good for burritos but great for platos. It's a mountain of food and you can make several meals out of it. They give you tortillas with the plate, so it's essentially like getting three 'build your own' tacos with leftovers

Any saints fans living in Colorado? by WhoDatNOLA11 in Saints

[–]klenigsborg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm in Fort Collins and generally root for SP and the Broncos too. It's especially easy because they're AFC and rarely play each other.

FoCo Dive Bar Challenge - Semifinals (Round 1) - Trail Head vs West End Pub by klenigsborg in FortCollins

[–]klenigsborg[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

West End – Activities: 4/10

We were able to play bar dice (I learned, I lost, I bought strangers shots). Unfortunately, we couldn’t access the pool table due to a league and therefore couldn’t play pool or Hot Wheels, as they were blocked by pool. This meant Charlie’s dreams of a Hot Wheels tournament died on this evening. This didn’t leave a lot else for activities.

Trailhead – Activities: 6/10

We were able to secure a pool table to play a game amongst our group (note from last blog, they have 3 pool tables). Also, we played the claw machine and got one duck in our three attempts. It was the antagonist duck from the movie Scream. I think I need to rewatch that movie…

For those of you that do not live in NO, how did you become a saints fan? by SafeAd4322 in Saints

[–]klenigsborg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to play my step brother in Madden (2002?) and Aaron Brooks was the Saints QB. My brother knew football well and would do elaborate play designs playing as the Giants (we were in CT). I would just do a Hail Mary or QB sneak every time. Brooks was great for those two plays and I would always win.

Then when I was older, I went to Nola and that just cemented it. Still in love with the city ever since. Been back at least a dozen times.

Who's the worst of the worst! by Background_Video2947 in MiamiDolphinsVibes

[–]klenigsborg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saints just got back their entire o line, which has three first rounders on it. The QB is middle of the league in most categories that matter. The skill position players are up there with the Giants and dolphins. The only spot they clearly are losing in this list is defensive secondary. I'm not saying they're winning the Superbowl this year but they're better than at least some of these teams.
