It's Thursday evening and you don't have anything to do, and you're sick of going to the same bar or just going home to rest. Try giving the horse track a chance. Canterbury park in Shakopee, MN has a great deal on Thursday Nights to provide great entertainment for those that enjoy sports and animals. The race track will grant you access to the park for 1$, allow you to eat hot dogs and nachoes at a 1$/piece, all while being able to place dollar bets on a few horses while they race around the track. If you're not sure what to bet on, just stand around the parade area to over hear some experts picking their horses. Or better yet, be bold and pick the horse with your favorite name... WHO knows, you could pick the big underdog winner and go home with some extra cash. BUCK NIGHT starts on JUNE 16th and runs through AUGUST 25th. So call up some friends and tell them to head out to the races. You'll be glad you did!Cheap and fun things to do around Minneapolis/St.Paul
