I made a trip, from Michigan, to visit Minneapolis. After five days in Minnesota, I went home, quit my job, sold my house, and moved here. No regrets.
Nicest people I've ever met in 60 years!
@@spudnut00 welcome to the fold, my man!
GEE YOU ARE NOT BRIGHT THEN
@@ChristineWaddell-dl3qy🥴🥴
It was once said about visiting Minnesota... "Don't come unless you're prepared to stay. It's that good. "
LMFAO....so.... Minnesota is one of those few demographics where we ACTUALLY DO know eachother. I went K-12 with Ariel Dumas - her family has the BEST apple Orchard !!!!
😂😂😂😂 I LOVE IT❤❤❤
She was so great!I hope they put both of them on more!
This is a fantastic anecdote, haha!
🥺💙
Ah, Minnesota, the most Canadian of all states, with the loon as their state bird to boot. Us Canucks could not love you guys and your plethora of lakes more.
Godspeed, Tim and Kam. May the good ole USA remain a decent and civilized democracy forever, and ever, amen.
Amen
We say we are diet canada.
Just wish Canada would keep their geese on their side of the border
Aaahhhh, Minnesota. A place where my mom and dads father and mothers along with many more are having you traitor getting all excited because of a Swedish corrupt Nazi, (same working force making our children be walked upon by Somalis and immigrants in north and Minnesota) you comment is not representative to the major folks in your state. In fact, my many friends as family barely walks into Minneapolis after 7 pm because of the strange scenario many of us in Scandinavia and Minnesota have to endure among a gang of “men in help” who each time for the past 15 years makes it harder and harder to even walk past the problem.
@@thatdouche4436 true story: Canadian geese were considered extinct, then someone discovered a small population that wintered in Rochester, MN (their power plant warmed the water of the dammed zumbro river so excess heat kept Silver Lake thawed year round). From that small population, the current terrorist of the sky were reconstituted. No Minnesota, no Canadian geese.
Does that make us conservation champions, or war criminals of the highest order?
Another fabulous Minnesotan fact - Governor Tim Walz dedicated a stretch of highway to Prince, and signed it with purple ink...☔💜☔💜☔
Cool. Didn’t know that. Is that stretch called the interstate formerly known as I-5 or something. 😀
I still remember when the best concerts were at 1st Ave (which I incorrectly thought he owned).
@@AndrewWertheimer yep
He's even cooler now. 🎸 💜
Prince never owned 1st Ave. He played there, saving the place and putting it on the map. He did own the Glam Slam clubs, one of which was in Minneapolis.
@@Kevin-wj4nk thanks for correcting me. I left MPLS in 87 for college and haven’t lived there since. I heard Billy Bragg in concert there and loved the vibe of the place. Long time ago.
The inside jokes with Chanhassen Dinner Theater and Lake Minnetonka were absolutely primo, I wish you had more Minnesotans in the audience to laugh at those! I was at home!
Yeah they needed to mention the giant viking statue in Alexandria too
-another South Dakotan
I screamed when they said Chanhassen!!
Would have loved a "purify yourself in the waters" reference, hard to mention Lake Minnetonka without it!
I lived in TN around the time when Purple Rain had come out on HBO, and my roommate would not believe me when I told him there really was a Lake Minnetonka! We'd just seen the scene where Prince "baptizes" Appolonia in the waters of Lake Minnetonka. (And yeah folks, that's where Tonka trucks came from!)
What I don't understand is how ANYBODY in a NY audience understood the "ope" joke in the monologue. I never realized we said that until maybe 2 years ago when someone pointed it out to me. I'm 57! "Ope, there ya go now." I've said that my whole life without knowing it was a thing. Not often, but it really is a MN thing. I guess?
@@beenaplumber8379 it's cuz social media
One thing you need to know is that virtually EVERY Minnesotan has an Uncle who likes to say "Mind your own Damn Business."
And I wonder, in how many cases it's the same uncle... ;-)
@@paulrandigdepends on the town 😂
Hey, I'm that uncle!
Died over this. I recently went to grad school in Minnesota, and there are two sayings I learned that sum up that place pretty well to an outside (and probably an insider):
1. Minnesota - Come for the culture, stay because your car won't start!
2. Minnesotans will give you directions to anywhere but their living room.*
*This is the real definition of 'Minnesota Nice' - which only us outsiders know!
Even though I'm glad I left (couldn't keep up with the cold!), I also still somehow miss Minnesota every day. Someone enjoy all the delicious food at the Minnesota State Fair for me this year! The ice cream in the Dairy building is the best ice cream ever made.
So agree as a Minnesota transplant whom just moved this is the most accurate!
@@charleyhorse1864 Interest beyond work and tv, i.e. having kids. 😏
As a native Minnesotan, I love this 😂🤣 For the record, we also gave the world Mayo Clinic.
Speaking of Prince. Walz dedicated a highway too him dressed in a purple shirt and tie and then signed the deceleration in purple ink.
WOW. That is amazing. And some folks think Lincoln did good things.
I absolutely cannot wait for Walz to do the Late Night circuit. He will make people want to jump through their TVs with laughter, fun and genuine happiness !!
I think he could possibly do stand-up bits.
@@123JWJWJW He could and he would be a great sport about it, too. He’s very kind about laughing at himself too - a lot like Obama in those kinds of situations and interviews. He would have been great at Letterman’s Top Ten Lists …
Wow 😮
Waltz and Harris two clown comedians. We need leaders in the white house. We deserve better!
I suppose it's a sign of my Minnesota-ness that I knew they were making a reference to Lake Minnetonka...
And the rest of us (above a certain age, anyway) only know about Lake Minnetonka because of Prince!
@@lorigoshert6667 Except for the subset of us who only know about Lake Minnetonka from Charlie Murphy's story about playing basketball with Prince.
I gotta go rewatch that clip again now 😂🎉😂
I say that randomly to people during the summer, and for those who know, it’s good times had by all! 😊
Where's the reference to the fried wall-eye?
@@LindaC616 is it our state fish :)
Love it! As a true Wisconsin girl, this is great! I hope the rest of this country can know more about us! Just regular people
I am a proud Minnesotan and a supporter of our wonderful governor, Tim Walz. My one big wish is that voters know that behind his folksiness is an extremely brilliant and astute man.
So true how you describe Gov. Walz!
Minnesota nice is the equivalent of the southern "Bless your heart." Welcome to America 😂
YES! I do mourn the obscurity of my insult in saying "Bless your heart" as it seems everyone & their mommas know what I mean now... so I'm looking forward to having 4/8 years to learn how to be Minnesota Nice.
(Will have to binge his Soc Med posts in the meantime...Am only left with, "Oh sweetie, it's a good thing you're pretty" when having to deal with box of rocks level dumb.)
@@sujimtangerines lol
Funny, but in Minnesota that doesn’t work the same way. I don’t think there is an equivalent reality. In my experience Minnesotans are just plain nice.
The Southern 'Bless your heart' means 'Eat hot lead, kincaid!" or "Burn in Hell!"
@@lcflngn Lol, are you kidding? We're some of the most passive aggressive people on the planet.
As someone from Minneapolis, I'm getting sick of all the portrayals of minnesotans as all white, folksy, and rural... Two thirds of the state lives in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metro area, a bastion of progressive politics. We also have the largest Somali and Hmong immigrant populations of any state. A truly excellent music, art, and theatre scene that has produced many national stars, etc. etc. No one I knew growing up was like these caricatures
I'm on the Range & do actually know some people who have the accent - but I don't & for the most part, I know more people without it than with it. Plus, up here it kinda sounds more Canadian than the stereotypical Scandinavian Minnesota accent. My 100% Finnish Iron Ranger grandpa had a stronger accent than I do. I know people from Duluth with it too. Some purposely do it just to annoy people too. There's a lot of rural people who move down to the Cities after school, so there's people down there who have an accent - I know several. It's just not a blanket accent for the whole state or even a whole region of the state. Minnesota is big & has immigrants from all over the globe along with the native tribal members - our accent varies. Heck, St Louis County is bigger than 3 northeastern states, so things vary up here within the county too.
I worked at the Northwest Airlines call center in Chisholm when Fargo came out - nobody believed we were in Minnesota because most of us didn't have the accent. I do cringe when I hear someone overly exaggerating it now.
Thank you! That was one of the reasons I didn't like Prairie Home Companion. Suni Lee (Olympic gymnast) is from St. Paul!
Thank you for giving us better insight into your state. I’m from the SF Bay Area and we are quite a mix of all cultures and it’s a true blessing. That’s what’s best about our country!
I agree. I didn't find this skit amusing at all. 👎🏽
@@patroberts5449ditto, from the same area !
I’m really happy that Walz was chosen, but I am also really apprehensive about people knowing this much about Minnesota. We are like the best kept secret, and now we are just putting it all out there.
I totally agree. I want to post a comment saying MN isn't so good. I fear that in the future, we will be a climate refuge, and it will be game over!
The climate refuge segments are more inconvenient for Minnesotans than learning more about the state in general. I'm on the Range & there's been a lot of out of state transplants who are going way over the asking price when buying houses in St Louis County - so the county has been raising property values & taxes considerably in recent years. My house value has more than tripled in the past couple years & my property taxes have multiplied even more. They are blaming the house sales for literally taxing people out of their family's multiple generation homes. When your property taxes go from a few hundred dollars to a couple thousand in 2 years, people notice! My mortgage payment doubled & I refinanced before the pandemic to get the payments lower - that was a waste of a couple grand in fees!
Wow! I’m sorry to hear that. @@hollyheikkinen4698
I agree with this! I’m a bit scared we’ll get too many people here. But we do have a lot of wide open rural space and nearly empty small towns, so maybe some of that can be developed. I just hope we do it well!
Just tell them about the freakin' bugs. The biggest turn-off of the place, for sure!
"Watch out for deer and tell you folks I say hi"
Charlie? Is that you?
Says hi lol
I grew up in the north, that all checks out, you betcha. Tell your folks I says hi.
I will as soon as a find the nearest Bubbler.
Charlie Berens is so cool!
@@royaladjemian596

@@PastaImposter I do love Charlie, mostly because he reminds me of my childhood HA!
The only thing missing was the Halloween blizzard of ‘91
Yes 😅
They’re gonna need to come back and do a segment about that before November.
And the April blizzard of 2016
@@naomitracy-hegg6577 *every year. We literally have a blizzard in April EVERY YEAR. The one in 2013 was memorable for me 😅
I was ten for that one. Me and a friend raked in so much candy that year. My folks were both horrified and impressed in equal measure.
Hi from Minnesota! Soon as they came out with the hotdish I was dying lol...
and it had to be Tuna Noodle! I bet that fancy Yale fella Vance calls it a casserole.
I lived-in Duluth Mn for 7 years and loved it.The people there are the best.
My son and I lived in MN for two years. Both of us agreed MN has only one shortcoming--the winter is too cold and too long.
Before we left, we visited Duluth. I couldn't help crying when I left MN. It's really a wonderful place.
I'm from Wisconsin and can confirm this is all accurate about Minnesotans & mostly accurate about us here too. Especially about the hot dish, that's a crime.
Perhaps not quite so serious as stated by the lady.
This brought so much joy to my Minnesotan heart!
Minnesota has two seasons: winter and road construction.
😅😅😅😅
Wisconsin too!
Yes! I e been trying to tell people that when Walz says “weird” he’s just speaking Minnesota Nice, and he means something, a little different 😂
The northern version of “Bless your heart”.
@@ChrisConner1Not really. There’s a difference. Midwestern nice is actually nice. Southern hospitality is more fake.
@@NonyaMeeSiamLOLNo. Not always fake. Most people get actual nice. Until they don't deserve it, usually because of the attitude they give. Please and Thank yous are required, along with Sir/Ma'am.
Yes and no. Sometimes Midwestern nice can be fake, too. Their example of stealthily insulting someone was spot on for some people.
@@MrBeckPJ Sure some can be fake. No one is saying everything is 100%. But Midwest nice is typically more real than Southern nice/hospitality.
LMAO!!! I am a lifelong Minnesotan and they are spot on!!
Where has this been all my life? ... This needs to be a regular segment: 'Minnesotans on politics' ... Love it ❤❤🤣🤣❤❤🤣🤣
Agreed!!!
Me, a Canadian: Well, i think i'd feel home in Minnesota.
You would! Montreal reminded me a lot of Minneapolis for some weird reason
And we Minnesotans would feel very at home in Canada. In fact, if the Dems don’t win in November, will you adopt us? (We’re going to win though!)
Definitely need a segment of local news when Walz visits Colbert.
What does that mean?
@@lynemac2539😮. If you have to ask , you don't get it.
@@amyreynolds3619
Um, yeah, that kinda why I asked.
@@lynemac2539 Oh, you know, the latest from Lake Wobegone

All this Minnesota makes me miss my Grandma. She lived in Iowa all the years I knew her, but she was born in Minnesota and that never left her. So ya, I'm a Tim Walz fan, ya betcha.
I think Bob Dylan was born
in Minnesota, so it’s also
the Nobel Prize state.
Yes Dylan is a born Minnesotan.
Hibbing to be exact.
@@Mplsgurl Duluth.
Yes.... some years ago, I did the Bob Dylan tour. We stopped in Duluth, Minnesota and saw a house that Bob lived in. And then, drove to Hibbing, Minnesota and saw: the house that Bob grew up in, his old high school, the building that was used for the Jewish temple that Bob attended, and saw a big Bob Dylan display at the local library. The entire city of Hibbing has become a mecca for Bob Dylan tourism.
I think he falls under the diminutive musical genius sex freak category
I grew up on Lake Minnetonka. Soon as she said Crystal Bay, I was like "That's not a lake, it's part of Lake Minnetonka!" Lived in Orono for a while, too.
Howdy neighbor! I was just boating on the lake this evening
@@icantbeliveitisnot Doing that "hand stuff"?? 🤣🤣
Um, yeah... WTF is "hand stuff?"
Minnesota is the state of swedish
heritage 🇸🇪 ❤️ 🇲🇾 Swedish people talk constantly about the weather and our whole culture and mindset has always been - mind your own business. So I feel like we're a part of this transformation and are rooting for blue 💙
There’s a thing called the Minnesota goodbye. It’s when you keep talking & fishing stories because it’s fricken too cold to go outside.
Sooner or later someone has to slap their knee and say, "Welp..."
Haha! We do the same in Canada.
@WyvernYT No its Ope, not welp 😂.
A proper goodbye takes a minimum of 30 minutes
Minnesota seem a lot like us Canadians
Remember, DONT CALL IT A CASSEROLE! ITS A HOT DISH!💙💙🇺🇸🇺🇸
And don't forget to write your name on the bottom of that dish! Bob's wife never gives anything back!
Sometimes it's called Goulash.
ever since my sister moved to Minnesota she calls out my mum at Christmas for saying casserole.
@@independent-ts6ys oh that was something my mother always made on the stove top
@@LindaC616 yeah! Always forget about the tape on the bottom with the name on it!😊😝
I grew up in Minnesota and I absolutely love this!!!!!
Which way
And the Minnesota State Fair is fantastic- Sooee!
I lived in multiple states and a couple countries overseas....my home state of MN is...by FAR... the best of them all.
Please tell me where so I can avoid! Fellow Minnesotan here
My mom and dad did an RV cross-country trip from WA to Florida and back. Minnesota was her favorite state. Sa
Thumbs up for your name and your town, which is my favorite sneeze word.
Last year, we drove up from Houston to visit the upper Midwest and drove from Milwaukee (now part of Minnesota, according to Laura Ingraham!) to Minneapolis. We went up there to see the fall colors. It's a lovely part of the country up there!
Well.... obviously! The women are strong, the men are handsome, and ALL the children are above average! You heard it hear first, on Prairie Home Companion, broadcasting from the pristine waters of Lake Wobegon!
Minnesota is amazing, we went there in boy scouts 2 years in a row to the Charles L Sommers Canoe Base. All the way from Texas. And it's still one of the most beautiful places I've ever been to.
@mdog86 that's nice to hear, from a Texan!
"Pocket-sized musical genius sex imps" Woah. Miss you Prince!
“ That’s different” and “ how interesting “ is about as mean as we get.😎
And it’s so benign. I rely on Minnesota nice as 100% real. It’s not my home but it’s my happy place.
So what does "they are weird" mean? That is like the nuclear option?
@Hyde_Hill it's the Midwest version of "can you believe the issue these mothaf..s are saying?"
@@Hyde_Hill That's the nicest we can get. Without going the way of the North East style. I would add, "strange, obsessive". (coming from Walz district here in the southern part of the state)
oh man I saw my mom in that sketch
My nephew raised in California went to Minnesota fell in love and now lives there with his wife and 6 kids.
It's a well-known issue for companies in Minnesota that it's hard to get people to move here but once they're here they refuse to transfer out.
As a Minnesotan, I have to say that Walz's hot dish looks substantially better than the one she mentioned - for the simple reason that I see evidence of savory junk food (tater tots) in his. That adds extra points. Potato chips would have been another option.
I read he won that type of stuff when he was in the House. I read not too long ago. (coming from his former district)
I like the tots
I guffawed at the "peas" joke.
Tater Tots are a food group in Minnesota!
Love Minnesota & Minnesotans(lived there for a couple of decades,a long time ago).But these guys are laying it on a bit thick("Fargo").But we❤ opTIMism ! Harris Walz 2024❤💙💙💙💙💙💙
The lake bit was good, but the kinda flubbed the punch line with the pronunciation. it's "Men-a-TAHN-ka" with maximum nasality on the third syllable 😄
the midwestern references in this episode are amazing. even mentioning the man in the middle 😂😂😂
much love from Iowa
🖤💛
Iowa sucks
I love her dress, it's so potluck dinner Minnesota chic.
All ten thousand lakes? There are way more lakes than that, but we don’t like to brag.
We also don't count puddles as lakes like Wisconsin does!
If you include rivers, streams, and smaller bodies of water too, then according to the U, we're at 112,000.
As a born and raised Minnesotan, it's nice to see someone actually approach the truth about MN Nice. We tout it as if it's a great thing, but it's really a hyper keen passive aggressiveness.
Oh, like Southern nice
I've always said that about our Mn nice also.
Honestly, I'm surprised Stephen didn't throw in a "Bless your heart" at the end 😆
I mean, I feel like that's oversimplifying it. You can't just ignore the first half of "Minnesotans will give you directions anywhere but their house".
We ARE nice, we just maintain an emotional distance until they've earned their way in. I'm not wasting my emotional investment on a transplant who chickens out the first time it drops below zero, for instance.
We're polite and smiley, but maintain that emotional distance until you earn your way in. But once you're in, you're ALL the way in.
My dad is approaching 60 and still has friends from the kindergarten he went to. Once those bonds are cemented, they're rock-solid and it takes a helluva lot to break them for good.

😂😂😂 “Oh Stephen, you sweet silly dingaling” took me all the way out! “That’s a bit different” is being added to my rotation. 😂😂
Minnesota shows how a farming state can adopt sensible, progressive policies if politicians are willing to go out, listen to people's needs and concerns, and articulate how progressive policies help them.
Except the actual farming communities vote overwhelmingly red. The blue is the twin cities/Duluth areas. Go much further beyond those zones and people are definitely not fans of the progressive policies.
Well most turkeys do come this state :)
@@dannykent6190 True, but Tim's congressional district was mostly rural.
I feel like we also have Alot of corporations
@@hereigoagain5050 well, since I was born over in Rochester. Which is in this district :)
I'm not from MN but have lived here for most of the last 45 years. My first experience with hot dish was at a job. A young woman from northern Minnesota came back from visiting family. She brought a hot dish to work. Interesting flavor. "What is it?" I asked. "Moose hot dish. My uncle shot one last week." Of course he did. Because that's Minnesota.
Love Minnesota! ❤
Can we stand up for the two writers? Damn... they're good... no surprise The Late Show with Stephen Colbert rocks!
Glad that Stephen is back. Your writers are spectacular.

Minnesota nice is when we mind our own damn business and never make someone else feel bad for making decisions we wouldn’t. Try it.
What I like a lot about Tim Walz is his wife, Gwen, and her work with the incarcerated and formerly incarcerated. There's an entire population of these guys floating around in America who need to be given a chance to get on their feet.... If they can get on their feet that can only be positive for everyone. I'm keeping my eye on Gwen to see if any of her ideas can be implemented, provided if the Democrats get elected!
ariel with "spam: short for 'spectacular! a ham!'" 😂😂😂
Harris and Walz will be Dancing the Dance while TRUMp and Vance will be soiling their pants....

High Fives! Trump wears a diaper for a reason. 🤦♂️
Trump and Vance
Don’t stand a chance
talk about a HUGE MOUTH . Tim A-Walz looks like a Canadian from that South Park TV show LOL
Minnesota is Paul Wellstone!❤
Now that’s real.
Walz attended a political training program run by Wellstone Action, an organization created by Paul Wellstone's sons 💚💚💚
He was a great Senator!
Love that man.
Yes! And Tim Walz carries on that same Minnesota tradition. Good guys telling it like it is for the common person. And fighting for our rights too! Hubert Humphrey, Walter Mondale, Paul Wellstone, and now our beloved Governor Walz.
I currently live in Rochester, MN and if you want to know what that city is like, it's where the Mayo Clinic was born aaaaaand... Yeah, that's it.

I am on the Iron Range - or Almost Canada 😉 - & our cable TV provider has had "the Canadian Channel" CBC since cable came here in 40+ years ago. I actually know the English parts of the Canadian Anthem - I don't speak French, so I didn't sing that part 🙃
We share more than just the international border with Canada up here - we share watersheds, rivers, forests, Lake Superior, etc.
I grew up across the Red River in Fargo, North Dakota, and the accents on these 2 take me back there. However, many of the settlers in that area came from Norway with its seemingly rather depressed folks, so in general, the affect of most people tends to be less hyper and a bit more monotone. But still, I enjoyed this bit a lot.
I feel seen. (sincerely, a Minnesotan)

@@GaryJohnstone-dx5sv That’s right, friend, and Minnesota makes significant public investments in education, infrastructure and services as a result. Don’t be fooled though, states with lower overall tax burden may have higher property taxes, sales taxes or other fees to make up for their budget shortfalls. Minnesota has low unemployment, a high concentration of Fortune 500 companies, and consistently ranks higher for quality of life here too, but I imagine all that stuff doesn’t matter to you. 🙂

Grew up in the Chicago suburbs. Studied at the University of Wisconsin-Madison (B.A., M.A., Ph.D.). Moved to Minnesota to teach at a private college and still live here in retirement.
I thought I understood my Minnesotan father pretty well...but this explains another layer of the culture he grew up in XD
HAHA! Way to represent Minnesota!!!
Also home of Charles Shultz!
Snoopy!
Miss camp Snoopy
This was a hoot! 😂
I greatly appreciate TLSSC but as a Minnesotan I find the Fargo-esque portrayal of our state's residents tiresome.
Trump and Vance don’t stand a chance because Harris and Walz will stomp their balls!
Vote 💙
Vote Democrats!
Vote Harris and Walz!
Haha I love that they leaned into the classic MN accent lol. People love hearing Minnesotans do the Minnesota accent.
Except people in MN, who hate it.
I feel seen and validated by the translation of, "That's a bit different!" My Kansas family says that about almost anything I tell them. I know when they say, "That's something different," they really mean, "You are so bizarre and how'd you come from this family?"
My sister moved from Detroit to St. Paul to get her master's degree and stayed there. She has mastered the Minnesota accent and when she comes home for Christmas, that is exactly how she talks now.
I’m a northwestern at heart but was transplanted in Minnesota. At first I hated it but I’ll tell you, nothing makes you miss Minnesota like living in Kansas. 😂 actually got a little nostalgia watching this.
Tidbits causally reported back to MN from sister in Topeka [as if totally normal] = 'the country of Kansas' now! Far less than CA, TX & FL.. The 🤯 is still frequent! 🤣
At its core, "Fargo" (the movie and the series) was a cautionary tale about "Minnesota nice".
Ah....! As a non-American i find that very interesting... since i love the Fargo series... 😊
Fargo being filmed in Canada and Minnesota having almost an identical Canadian accent, actually tells us a lot about canadians lol
@@wolfclown - I hadn't thought of that... 😅
Fargo is in North Dakota. Moorhead is in Minnesota.
Wish people would cut that out.
Anyone else getting flashbacks to Drop Dead Gorgeous? That movie never gets old.
The seatbelt was actually invented here in Sweden! 🇸🇪 And made free without any proprietary costs, just because the inventor wanted everyone in the world to be safe! 🙂↕️✊🤟
Free? That would have never happened in the US where we think we have a president but we really don't. We have a king and his name is Greed.💰
@@GeFanAldrigUpp Well, isn’t that the seatbelt we all know it as today? Which is in 99.9% of all cars?
Come on,..
@@Justusson The original seat-belt stopped ejection but caused massive internal injuries. Thank you Nils Bohlin.
Minnesota was the setting of Little House on the Prairie, although is was filmed in California.
Ppl don't know this but the arts are huge here...
Our theatre scene is second to only cities like New York, LA and ATL. A lot of TV shows get filmed here as well..
@@Phizzo4real And we have more children’s theatres per capita than anywhere in the US
You just listed 3 places that it's second only to. At most it must be fourth.
Yes, the TV show was set in Walnut Grove, Minnesota, where the Ingalls family lived for a few years in real life. But they actually lived all over the Midwest and mostly in DeSmet, SD.
@@dannykent6190 It’s an expression, “second to.” It means it’s not one of the top-tier, world-famous theatre scenes like the ones listed, but it’s close.
Minnesotans are humble and keep a low profile on purpose!!! 💙💙💯💯
#MinnesotaNice
…and we DON’T talk like that!!! 🤔😉😂
I grew up in Ham Lake and went to the Forest Lake schools. I feel so targeted and proud at the same time.
I grew up in Ham Lake too! I swear it's like the MN of the state...no one knows where it is 🤣
"Spam!! Which is short for spectacular! A ham!" 😂
Man, maybe I should move to Minnesota :)
I believe Jessica Lange resides in Minnesota.
She’s from Cloquet.
