Yeah, as a fan you go to the games. But what does the rest of your family do while you're at the games? They see the local attractions.<BR/><BR/>The Omaha area does have some neat stuff, but not all of it is within walking distance of the Qwest. For example, the Joslyn Museum and the Strategic Air and Space Museum. Both of these can hold their own against attractions in 3:43PM's list of other cities.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7312464275837687150.post-13170175093573104702008-03-26T16:41:00.000-07:002008-03-26T16:41:00.000-07:00If I'm a FAN, I go to see the games.If I'm a FAN, I go to see the games.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7312464275837687150.post-14644051524407503712008-03-26T15:43:00.000-07:002008-03-26T15:43:00.000-07:00If you were a fan, what card honestly would you ra...If you were a fan, what card honestly would you rather have pulled:<BR/><BR/>A.)

Johnny's is NOT where anyone goes to get a good steak. You go to Johnny's for reunions, banquets, and things like that. Now if this reporter went to Gorat's, Mahoganay, Piccolo Pete's and places like that and then thought the steak reputation was overrated, then I wouldn't have a problem with his negativity towards the steakhouses.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7312464275837687150.post-49087977817628017162008-03-26T15:17:00.000-07:002008-03-26T15:17:00.000-07:0012:54 PM---you must work at 6.12:54 PM---you must work at 6.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7312464275837687150.post-34380361019085374072008-03-26T12:54:00.000-07:002008-03-26T12:54:00.000-07:0010:54 AM - No.10:54 AM - No.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7312464275837687150.post-23079173016177035212008-03-26T10:54:00.000-07:002008-03-26T10:54:00.000-07:00For those of us not privy to the latest ratings, a...For those of us not privy to the latest ratings, and since the authors of this blog aren't going to share them either, can someone fill us in?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7312464275837687150.post-83740510002132980122008-03-26T10:49:00.001-07:002008-03-26T10:49:00.001-07:00????

Going up to Omaha for people already in the Midwest is not a big change compared to coming from Vegas. While I find Kantowski a little bitter in his views, it's what he thinks and he's entitled to it. Omaha isn't a tourist hotspot and the two attractions (Old Market and zoo) aren't going to win everyone over everytime.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7312464275837687150.post-56833315755023454532008-03-25T08:16:00.000-07:002008-03-25T08:16:00.000-07:00I ate at Johnny's last year and I thought the stea...I ate at Johnny's last year and I thought the steak was awesome!<BR/><BR/>Some old guy was hurling/coughing up a lung in the corner, which kind of killed the ambiance, but the food was really good.<BR/><BR/>These Vegas guys are as narrow minded as the people they think they met in Omaha.
