The Turf Club opened on University Avenue around 1940 as a supper club and dance hall with a horse racing theme. From the 1990s it became the room that broke the habit of Twin Cities bands playing only Minneapolis. The basement, called the Clown Lounge, started as a place to display clown memorabilia and ended up hosting a long running Monday night experimental jazz series.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
