Minnesota, the 32nd state in the United States, has plenty of fun, crazy, classic things to offer. It's a great place to be apart of, that's for sure. Here are some reasons why Minnesota is the best state in the U.S.
1. Fortune 500 Companies
There are 17 fortune 500 companies around the state of Minnesota, which is cool due to job openings.
2. There Are Actually Four Seasons
You get to go apple picking in the fall, sledding in the winter, spring clean in the spring, and unthaw in the summer. Sometimes, if you're lucky enough you can even experience all of them in one day.
3. Lake Life is Amazing
We are considered "The Land of 10,000 Lakes," which means at some point in your life you've probably been able to experience at least one of the clean and clear lakes we have to offer. You can fish, swim, tube, or just relax almost anywhere in Minnesota.
4. Hockey Means the World to Us
Hawkey is a major sport to Minnesotan's lives. We live, breathe, and pledge our allegiance to it.
5. Minnesota Nice is Surley a Thing
We are the nicest people you could ever meet..at least to your face.
6. Mall of America
Mall of American (or MOA to us Minnesotan's) is a big deal to tourists, but it's definitely not to us. It's too packed full of tourists for our liking.
7. Minnesota State Fair
Who doesn't want to participate in 12 days of deep fried foods, rides, concerts and fun? Oh, and there is a giant slide and Sweet Martha's Cookies.
8. We Have Fun Phrases
"Uff da," "you betcha," and "dontcha know."
9. Hotdish
Tater Tot Hotdish. Enough said.
10. Blondes
There are a lot of Scandinavian origins within the state, meaning there are a lot of blonde-haired blue-eyed Minnesotans. Also, blondes do it better.
