50 STB - Pub Crawling & Gangsters in Minnesota
SandraLynn Author IconMail Icon wanted to drive the Party Bus through the Wabasha Street caves, but the caves weren’t big enough. We unloaded off the bus in the parking lot and took the “gangster” tour of St. Paul. Who knew St. Paul was a hub for gangsters? John Dillinger, Alvin “Creepy” Karpis and Babyface Nelson used St. Paul. They lived in local houses which are still standing to this day. A popular place they would go would be caves.

The Wabash caves are cool. They used to be a mine, then was made into a speakeasy, then a swing bar, and a gangster hangout. I think I found a money clip that John Dillinger used in one of the bullet holes down there. Princess Megan Rose Author IconMail Icon thought she saw a ghost. What we didn’t know was that it was swing night. The band filtered in and started to play. Before you know it, the swing floor was full of customers. The new owner bought a round of drinks for the guests. WakeUpAndLive Author IconMail Icon and Sung'manitu Author IconMail Icon swung to the music. When the hour was over, we decided to do a 3 hour pub crawl through St. Paul. Lyn's a Witchy Woman Author IconMail Icon found all the good shops – not just bars. Me and Princess Megan Rose Author IconMail Icon got another Kate Spade purse. Krista Author IconMail Icon took lots of pictures for her Instagram. AmyJo-July 2/3s done Author IconMail Icon found a place that sold a fat tire bike – a bike made specifically for snow. She wanted to come back ride one in the winter.

After our pub crawl, we managed to crawl back to the Party Bus and pass out, exhausted.
