rudkipon66 Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 (edited) Hi--Was advised that a very cool drive in in St.Paul MN called Porky's may be meeting the wrecking ball in the near future. The property was purchased by an adjacent landowner. Porkys has been a fixture on University Ave. in St. Paul for many a year and a draw for local and national car clubs. It is an awesome place and if you are interested, here is a link to an article about its current situation: http://www.startribune.com/local/stpaul/119073724.html or (if the link doesnt work) type Porkys St. Paul, MN in a google search; there is an article about it in the Star Tribune (the Minneapolis MN newspaper) SGF, Kip Edited April 4, 2011 by rudkipon66 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennyG Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 The article at least leaves some hope that the building might be saved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightfan26917 Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 Sure hope it is saved. Sad to see an establishment like that go. I know it happens all the time, but the more they disappear ... the more we lose a bit of Americana.
