Watson’s Demolition for the New Transit Station
From the Star Tribune’s South Metro Police Blotter:
This is almost as bad as crayons:
Mischief. Deputies received a report of kids using chalk to write on the basketball court at Bluff Heights Apartments, 16638 SE. Franklin Trail.
From the Star Tribune’s Town Briefs:
When is Apple Valley going to copy this idea from another suburb?!
“I Love Burnsville Week” kicks off with the Cops and a Cause Concert at the Garage, a youth center across from City Hall, from 5:30 to 11 p.m. May 30. Admission is $8. Money raised goes to prevent domestic violence.
There also will be a community-wide garage sale May 30-31. On May 31, walk with the mayor at 10 a.m., attend a farmers’ market, take group wedding vows or renew yours, or attend a String Werks concert. Activities will continue through the week, from the Community Art Project to an ice cream social. Go to www.burnsville.org for much more information.

I hope the Watson’s Pool Girl wasn’t inside.

I noticed just today that they had started demolition of the Watson’s site. I assume it started earlier this week but today was the first day it caught my eye. Interesting that you posted a picture of it today as well.

Steve,
While they have been clearing the site for some time, they hadn’t touched the main building before sometime today. I noticed a slight wrinkle in the roof next to the “S” in “Waton’s” and even thought to take a photo but we were in a rush to catch the bus and I neglected to do my civic duty.
This afternoon they were actively destroying the structure so I just had to get a pic.

It’s sad that Watson’s had to go to make way for the transit station. It’s even more depressing that the somewhat trashy Watson’s girl isn’t on TV as often as she used to be.

Is there some sort of support group for all you Watson’s girl lovers? I need to sign my husband up. He’s crushed that he will never accidentally run into her there. Once he was going for pool supplies and excitedly asked me “What should I wear?!” pathetic…humorous…but pathetic.

There’s hope for him yet. Watson’s is a Cincinnati-based company with locations all over the U.S. I’ve seen commercials with the Watson’s girl in several different cities.

So you’re suggesting my husband stalk the Watson’s girl?

I’m sure he wouldn’t be the only one.
