The Nicollet County Ledger visited with Niessen’s, a bar and grill located in Saint Peter, last Thursday amid a jackpot drawing event held at their establishment.
Hundreds of patrons attended the event. Their event, every Thursday evening, provides a way for customers to win a cash prize, according to General Manager Katie Straub.
“People have a lot of fun with it,” Straub said.
Straub said around 180 to 190 people usually attend the growing event at the beer and burger joint in Saint Peter.
Anyone 18 years old or older can get a free ticket at Niessen’s. The event starts at 7 p.m. The staff hide drawn tickets from the customers and there are trivia games that are held with prizes awarded to the ticket that is drawn. There is a board that they approach to find a special ace of spades card to win the jackpot at the event. The bar puts in $1 for every ticket handed out, which goes into the next week if no one draws the lucky ace. The jackpot then starts over at a $500 cash prize.
