Fun Trivia:





• The Armory building was used by the Minneapolis Lakers as a part-time home between 1947–1959, and as its primary home court for the 1959-1960 NBA season. (source: armorymn.com)
• With its progressive milling capabilities and unbeatable production, Minneapolis became known as the "Flour Milling Capital of the World" and was referred to as "Mill City" for nearly 50 years. (source: www.minneapolis.org)

Come Saturday night, a different kind of milling will be in full display atop the squared circle in The Armory.
