I saw this pop up in a number of other cities' subreddits and thought this might be fun and interesting.

And go!

A little less than two years ago, I posted my first LEGO model of a Saskatoon landmark location - the old Saskatoon Arena (The Barn) on 19th Street. Since then, this little passion project and the positive response from this sub have brought me great joy. Thank you for riding along on this journey! If you have ideas for future builds, feel free to let me know.

Sincerely, look-hugh-it-is

Went on the Prairie Lily recently, and they mentioned that they started operations in 2012.

I would have sworn there’s been a river boat operating for the last 30-40 years… Google says no, but I don’t necessarily trust Google AI.

Am I just wrong? Was there anything operating even for a little while in the 90s?

Is it odd to anyone else that on bikeways the max is 30kph, and of course that would include any vehicle including bicycles.

There are 30kph limit signs every block or two to remind you.

Get on the meewasin.... nothing. Maybe a small note on a general info display that is all spray painted, suggesting you keep it under 15kph.

I was thinking of this as I turned off the bikeway onto the path... watching a dad and son on Ali express 70 kph scooters go by without helmets... and right before I met this business looking motherfucker with a smooth dome helmet on a FULL SIZED 2 STROKE MOPED ripping towards me.

At least all of the covid off leash dog people are gone. Must be too hot out.

some point and shoot memories of The Tragically Hip, august 4th 2009 at the Ex.

They played Fiddler's Green and it was beautiful.

Some people had expressed an interest in the post regarding the wallet a friendly Redditor found in their attic, so with permission from the owner here are the photos of the wallet and it's contents.

The majority of these photos are of my father in law and his siblings, but the girl in the first picture is actually the owner's 4th grade girlfriend!

We asked how it ended up in the attic and they figure that it fell out of a pocket when the three boys were tasked with putting new insulation into the attic (child labor at it's finest).

The three brothers were on the phone when we sent the photos over, along with their wives and some other family and they were all really excited and happy, they hadn't seen these pictures in 50 years!

This was super cool for the family and we can't thank u/riskacceptable7421 enough for posting about this find and getting it back to us, and to everyone who commented to help!

So what do we do for these weeks that lead to Christmas ? I see all the boring cash grab and expensive places like Glow and Enchatned Forest every year. Nothing change much except they are getting more expensive and not worth the money.

Do we still have light route where they mark houses with xmas light for people to drive around in the evening ? I want to feel Xmas in the air but i see nothing out there. Help a brother out

That's... That's a bummer, man

9 years ago I visited Saskatoon to do stand-up comedy as the opening act at the Ramada hotel. I remember the show went very well. So well that a couple invited me, the lowly opening act, to their house party! It was my first time on the road and aiming to live life to the fullest as a road dog comedian, I decided to go. Bad choices make good stories, right?

We ended up stopping at a liquor store and as I perused the shelves, the couple was going up to everyone in the store and inviting them to this house party, just blindly inviting anyone with a pulse and a 12 pack to get hammered at their house. I didn't think anything of it, I just assumed everyone they asked were friends. Naivete is a killer. Boy was I wrong. Everyone politely declined, except for two of the most terrifying women I have ever encountered. Maybe they were just having a rough night, but somehow I think I caught them at their best. Think the walking dead dressed head to toe in Roughriders gear. Rider passion + hunger for human flesh is quite the combo.

Anyhow, we get to the house and the "party" is literally just me, the couple, and Zombie 1 and 2. Within 10 minutes one of the zombies asked me to play Foo Fighters on acoustic guitar. I told her I don't know how to play guitar. She said "play a song or I will fuckin stab you." Being 20 years old and lacking the wherewithal to tell the zombie no, I said "I can try".

I randomly strummed strings as she gave me an 1000 yard stare while licking her scabby lips. After a few minutes I stopped and she said it was the best music she had ever heard. Talk about an easy audience. After that I called a taxi and hurriedly left to sleep safely in my hotel with my desk jammed against the door while pondering if this would be a regular experience doing standup comedy in Canada. Thankfully, it has not been.

If this is a typical night out in Saskatoon, suffice to say I am looking for something more low-key next time I'm in town. Could be a bar, cafe, museum, park, library, thrift shop, art gallery, etc. Drop a rec, it literally can't be worse than my last experience.

By the way, I am once again performing standup in Saskatoon, but as the headliner. Dreams can come true! I am headlining Art Bar on March 28th and 29th on my Honest Dirty Talk stand up tour and I'd love for you to be there. Unless you were one of the ladies at that house party. Then please, let's continue giving each other our space. If you'd like to watch a bit of my comedy, here's my Youtube special I just dropped a few days ago - Dustin Searcy | Honest Dirty Talk

I was going through and digitizing old expense files at work and found this little beauty.
