I like Des Moines as well. It is a very nice city. I was there on business and enjoyed it so much my wife and i took a long weekend. Prairie Meadows was also good to me.

I lived in Clive for a year when I worked for Principal. You should get all those Clive after Five people to join your watch party!

Cool, I did my undergrad at Cornell and interned with the Rough Riders.
Zindrick's Czech restaurant in CR is one of my all time favorite places to eat!!

Mickey's, yes! spent quality time there. I have a hard time remembering all the name to places. However, Outer Limits and Big Earl's always seem to stick out in my mind.

Of the handful of those establishments I have been in, Big Earl's by far gave you the most uhhh bang for the buck. . .

OK, not a local place, but whenever I'm passing through on my way to Chicago, I'm a fan of the new Fuddruckers in West Des Moines.
There's a lot of nice, new stuff being built on the SW side of DM these days.
