There's a TV tower over by Fargo that's 2,063 ft. It's the highest
structure in the world.

if true, that's the funniest ****ing thing i have ever heard.

Not only is this TV tower not in Minnesota, but it isn't the tallest
structure in the world (nor is it the "highest"). :-)

It's the tallest and the highest, stuff under the ocean don't count.
There use to be one in NoDak that was 2,400 ft high but it collapsed.
taking some people with it. Be happy you don't work on towers.
As for Wayno, Fargo is to Minnesota as in the movie "Fargo" which
actually takes place in Minnesota. Maby Cyli can splain it to you.

over by Fargo

Someone help me with the geography association. Fargo is to Minnesota as
____ is to ____.

Well, I suppose as Fargo is basically on the ND/MN border, and the guy
said "*by* Fargo," that there's no real problem, here.

I married a beautiful woman from Minnesota, and dang if I don't hear
"Oh, up by Fargo" all the time at family gatherings when folks are
referring to that section of MN.

wayno, 'scuse me, but the fact that the above link would like to add
this place as a travel destination while you're in ND is even funnier.

I never saw so many pheasants in a day as I did just
driving along the interstate in North Dakota. It may
be a backward red state, but it sure has a hell of a
lot of pheasants.

Some people in North Dakota have repeatedly tried to change the name of
the state from North Dakota to Dakota. It sounds SO much better, and
disguises the fact that sunny South Dakota got all the scenery, such as
it is.

Well, maybe they could fly North Dakota to Alaska.......I hear it's REALLY
cheap.
