About

Minneapolis versus Saint Paul in a light-hearted fundraiser that's part friendly rivalry, part community organizing. Emcee Danger Boat Productions leads an evening of drinks, food, trivia, improv, and a high-stakes fundraising face-off between housing advocates from across the Twin Cities. Last year's smash hit returns with new speakers, new plans, and the kind of good-natured competition that actually raises money for walkable neighborhoods.
