Minneapolis is Best City For Sleep

I think it has more to do with everyone being a big puss and going to bed early instead of going out. Bar time is only 2am, for cryin' out loud (and was only 1am until last spring :thumbsdown: ). And this in the city with the second largest university in the US?:confused::beer:

Yes, it's not so much sleep as it is hibernation.

When you wake up to 0 degrees with -20 wind chill, you can't help but go back to bed ;)

So was Arizona until this late summer. Most midwestern states are 2am or earlier.

I grew up in MN...so spent the first 22 years of my life there. I moved to AZ and don't plan to ever move back. The cold got old.

Don't other big cities like NYC or Chicago stay open until 4am or something? Even my hometown of LaCrosse, WI (pop ~ 50K) stays open til 2.30am on the weekends.

Eventually you learn to suck it up and take it.

I don't think I'd make it. I wear a big coat when it drops down to 60.
