| Local artist Scott Seekins gets a whole week dedicated to him at Uptown's the Lowry |
If you've ever lived in Minneapolis, you know you've seen him. His notorious suits and infamous hair are things of local legend. Starting today, the Lowry in Uptown is hosting a week-long celebration in his honor. He is Scott Seekins.
All week long the Uptown restaurant will be featuring a variety of events all in the name of Seekins. If by chance you've never actually laid eyes upon the man, now's your chance. There will be art showings, a look-a-like contest, and yes, there will be a meet and greet. You'll even have a chance to get your hands on limited-edition pint glasses and T-shirts that bear his now iconic visage.

| National Jerky Day is June 12 |
In honor of National Jerky Day (that's today for those of you who didn't already have it on your calendar), Jack Link's, now one of the "fastest-growing meat snack manufacturers in the world," has created an all-jerky portrait of Sasquatch, the creature featured in its current ad campaign.
The portrait was made by Jason Mecier, a San Francisco-based mosaic artist who is known for his bean and noodle portrait of Buffy Summers, Condoleeza Rice made of actual rice, and a card made of holiday candy that features the Olsen twins. It took more than 16 pounds of jerky, which is about 80 bags, of Jack's snack meats to make this work of art.
