Attention lovers of hot dogs (and free hot dogs, for that matter): Make room in your schedules and your stomachs for the Minneapolis Hot Dog Eating Contest this Saturday, April 18th at the Uptown Bulldog, 2:00pm-4:30pm.
Contestants will go head to head to see who can eat the most hot dogs in 10 minutes. Anyone who yacks during or within the 5 minutes following the contest is disqualified. Contestants must show up by 2:00pm to sign in and fill out a liability form (you know, just in case you pull something).
As far as I can tell, the winner of the Minneapolis Hot Dog Eating Contest wins bragging rights. This event is free, with hot dogs and buns courtesy of the Bulldog. There may be drink specials for spectators, but that's yet to be determined. The contest does overlap with the Bulldog's usual daily happy hour: 3:00pm-7:00pm, $1.00 off taps and bottles (Belgians excluded).
Starting tomorrow, Chino Latino is running a "Pink Tacos for Pink Slips" promo, in which anyone who's unemployed can ask for a free mini-taco. The two-bite munchie consists of a fried wonton shell stuffed with spicy tuna tartare and citrus aioli. No pink slip is actually required, just ask your server for the freebie and it's yours. The promo runs through April.
