Minnesota Jokes and Stories
We Love to Laugh at Ourselves!
Minnesota jokes and stories are passed from family to family and down through the generations. We really know that the joke is on us as we make fun of our accent, our weather, our habits and more.
Minnesotans have great capacity to laugh at ourselves. Garrison Keillor, of A Prairie Home Companion fame, makes his living by recognizing the humor in Minnesota's Norwegian Bachelor Farmers, Lutheran Pastors, Scandinavian cooking and those of us who haunt the local café to eat rhubarb pie.
A popular book is titled How to Talk Minnesotan: A Visitor's Guide.
