Prince Symbol / Guitar / Golf ..thing is in IDS Center Downtown Mpls

I don't have a phone on me to take a picture and send it here, but it's a gold setup I believe for the day and they have a set-up shaped as the Prince symbol guitar with real guitar strings for the gold ball to ride down into the hole.

If you get a chance check it out.

It's in downtown Minneapolis, MN in the IDS building.

Someone jumped out a window on the 30th floor in 1996 and went splat on the sidewalk...just saying.

I was downtown so I decided to take a look at it, and I was expecting a HUGE Gold symbol, I was surprised to see it was pretty itty bitty, must be for 'miniature golf'

FYI, in the movie Purple Rain, it's the IDS center where Prince see's the cloud guitar strapped to a mannequin.

lol With the flash bulbs going off in the background? I wondered where that was shot. I was thinking it was at the old City Center.

The 'old' City Center?... Did they tear it down? I moved away from Minneapolis 13 years ago, and haven't been back.

I thought it was completely different inside after a bunch of reconstruction. Maybe not. It's been forever since I've been in it.

I work in City Center.

It's very different inside, but still more or less intact. lol


I'll try to take a pic of the symbol guitar/mini golf thing if I can...
