What started as just another innocent night of watching a sorry excuse for professional basketball ended in gunfire, looting, hundreds wounded, and dozens dead. The Tapline Podcast interviewed several key eye witnesses of that infamous night to bring you the true story of what took place the night of... THE MINNESOTA MELEE!
