Snow. While it might be a pain, it’s also our best friend. It’s gorgeous and since it sticks around in MN, if we didn’t love it, we wouldn’t stick around either!

Summer. Not only do Minnesotans love summer, but we love it way more than most people. We have to wait out a long and grueling winter for our amazing few months of sunshine and swimming weather!

Being original. Whether you’re a city hipster or small town purist, Minnesotans love being the first. Maybe that’s why we made so many of the best inventions.

Laughing at themselves. We love MN jokes. From accents to weather to Ole and Lena, we love joking about our home state. We never take ourselves too seriously which is why it’s the most fun state to live in!
