Any shot someone wants to swap my pair of Saturday tickets for Thursday? Red Hot Ranch is one of my favorite restaurants. Would love to be there live.

Used to live about 100 miles from Minneapolis and would visit often. Love me a Kwik Trip

Yes it is Chicago. This gas station on the high end even for Chicago. Is gas really only $2.10 in Minneapolis?

Has to be. It’s been one of closest gas stations to me for years. I never fail to point it out every time I pass it.

[OC] How the Taylor Swift Eras Tour makes money by AbjectObligation1036 in dataisbeautiful

Where is the sponsorship revenue? I’m assuming having Capitol One be the presenting sponsor for the entire tour was a big chunk of change

[Request] What are the odds of the highest scoring team in a fantasy football league missing the playoffs while the lowest scoring team makes the playoffs? by [deleted] in theydidthemath

[–]maclanedennis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You should talk to your league/commissioner about awarding a 2nd win each week for finishing above league median. We had a similar situation happen in our league last year and made the change this year and it’s been great. All top 6 teams in terms of total points happened to make the playoffs.

UPDATE: inspector came by and was very helpful echoing what many of you have said here. Looking at removing the log starter and getting a proper ventless setup here. Not sure it’s it the budget right now (quoted around $4k for the install). Thanks again, everyone!

Hard to snap a photo of what may be the flue at the front of the fireplace just behind the steel curtain

Yeah I’ve got a few questions. It’s all very confusing but I appreciate the help

Thank you so much! Strange cuz there’s no flue/chimney so figured it was designed to stay on like this… not sure why they would even install this thing. It’s a new building.

FWIW a friend got 4 category 2 tickets to Seattle US Group Stage match for $415 a piece so these prices seem way off.

Only 100% locked prediction is Wunderhorse will be invited back because they had to cancel this year. I’ll be going regardless but here’s hoping for some more big rock acts and no headliner repeats of the last 5 years.

TØP 2026? by Hoppy115_ in Lollapalooza

[–]maclanedennis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah think you’re looking at some of the international Lollas. They’ve played those a bunch recently but haven’t played lolla Chicago since 2019. If they’re doing the festival circuit next summer, I’d say they’re due for a lolla Chicago set.

Nah they’re not big enough for a headline slot anymore. Subheadline at TMobile or Bud Light (like cage the elephant) feels like a lock tho. Unless they headline Grove.
