That's cool. I think Frank already mentioned that The Little Log House has a car show so maybe they will do more car related stuff in the future.

Hopefully the onion rings and burgers will still taste as good. Although im not going to drive from the northern suburbs to south of Hastings just for that. Its still nice to know they will continue to exist.

I Think its just going to be a static display Chris... No food.

There may be "porky's style" food on special occasions the buyers have said.

That kind of sucks. At least they saved the building.

I'm kind of surprised they didn't move everything the state-fairgrounds... that's a huge part of MN history/culture that would be a big hit there, especially during BTTF and CCSN. I would have expected the fair-board to have wanted it there as an attraction as well. Sounds like they're going to set up a "Porky's" at the fairgrounds anyway, why not use the original building?

That was my first thought as well and cant figure out why they would want to get rid of the building. Or. Any of the kitchen equipment for that matter. They already had it all. Now if they get a booth at the fair, they have to spend all that money to get started again.
