When visiting the original Shooters in Highland Beach, California, many are unaware that there are actually half a dozen branches of the business. The one in Saint Paul is one of only two outside California, operated by the uncle of the chain's founder. Like its older sibling, it's grungy and dirty but renowned for high quality food, and it operates a stage in an underground floor for concerts, booking both up-and-coming acts and local groups. This space is also used for other purposes, and in the past year has become known for a monthly sparring competition; contestants sign a number of waivers, strap on safety gear, then whale on one another with foam weapons in an effort to move up the bracket and win a $200 gift card.
