50 Reasons Minnesota is the best state

Steph0871

CityPages just released this (< clicky) article.  What do you think? I love that they claim Zubaz (and Oregon Trail!)

What would you add to the list if you could?

I 2nd the Oregon trail. I loved that game, well I still do. I would add our beer and local breweries!

I read in some article that the Twin Cities is actually one of the best metro areas in the country to open a restaurant :-)

Guys, my dads BFF from high school invented Zubaz. About half of my childhood clothing consists of Zubaz. And I visited a Zubaz factory once. Trufax.

Ah, that's sooo great!  I'll put a thumbs up for Prairie Organic Vodka!  I received a bottle of it as a tip one time from Phillips Distilling Co. and I've been in love ever since.  Sooooo smooth.  You can get it at Costco for a pretty decent price.

37. We excel at relaxing: everyone has a cabin at the lake. - I don't :-(

31. We're the hipster state. - Ha!

8. Minneapolis is a great place to be gay. - Love this.. lol

3. We gave the nation two GOP candidates for president and wouldn't vote for either of them. - True story. Pawlenty is practically my parent's neighbor (he's nice and all, I just don't really agree with him) and I live in Bachmann's district.. gag.

I do rather love number 18. We really don't give a #@$% what you think of our accents. Got a good laugh out of me.

Awwwww this makes me miss MN a whole lot! I have to admit, I was looking online at different internship opportunities earlier today (Hazelden, I'm lookin' at you!). I love Chicago, don't get me wrong...but my heart must be in Minne!

Thanks for posting Steph (totally re-posted on FB, hehe)!
