DAIRY QUEEN: Menomonie
I had supper between basketball games at the Dairy Queen kitty corner from UW Stout's athletic facility.

Place: Dairy Queen, 1221 S Broadway, Menomonie, WI 54751
Date: Sunday, May 25, 2008
Meal: supper
Order: Grillburger Cheeseburger basket, Diet Pepsi
Total cost: $4.42

The wait was quite long. I am sure it was due to the crowd from the basketball tournament. I was eating in the car when the weather sirens were going off. I left the last few fries and about a bite of the burger to get to safety. The odd thing was the games weren't delayed or stopped, they kept right on going despite the blaring sirens right outside the doors. You could hear the wail in the building.
