Yeah, but quite a few of us Wisconsinites saw those commercials. And I thought there should be some mention of lutefisk and lefse. And Ole and Lena jokes.

I used to work with a guy from Minnesota. He told me an Ole and Lena story.

Lena was a bartender in a small tavern in Minnesota. She fell in love with a customer, Ole. They married and moved to St. Paul. A few years later, they visited the home town and Lena went to her old place of employment. Lena had gained considerable heft.

The owner said, “Lena, you could play with the Green Bay Packers!” Lena replied, “Ole’s packer is all I want to play with.”

I think North Dakotans tell even better Ole and Lena jokes than Minnesotans. They definitely make better lefse.

Lutefisk? Can't tell you because I could never bring myself to eat the stuff.
