Another reason...

to love living in Minnesota is that OUR Dairy Queen, Princess Kay of the Milky Way, has her likeness carved in about 90 pounds of pure butter. If any single gentlemen out there are smitten, please keep in mind that this year's Princess Kay is from New Ulm and is protected by Herman the German. Don't mess with her unless you want to get seriously roughed up. Also keep in mind that the Jolly Green Giant (in Jordan) and Paul Bunyan (in Brainerd) are pledged to protect Princess Kay.
