LOL, cats: Internet Cat Video Festival returns this week
Clear your schedule, cat video fans: The Internet Cat Video Festival is headed back to the Twin Cities this week.
It's the third year for the popular festival, hosted this Thursday as part of the Walker Art Center's free Open Field series.
Last summer, the festival drew a crowd of roughly 10,000 to the grandstand at the Minnesota State Fair.
