Get the Minnesota 15mug. A team in the National Football League (NFL) whose idea of a successful season is not choking during the last 5 weeks and missing the playoffs. Unlike other teams, they know they will never win a Super Bowl and once they make the playoffs, that's pretty much it.
Here it is, the season's on the line. Two receivers left and right. McCown, takes the snap, he steps up, he's all by himself...FIRES INTO THE ENDZONE. CAAAUGHT!! TOUCHDOWN!!! NOOOO!!! NOOOO!!! THE CARDINALS HAVE KNOCKED THE MINNESOTA VIKINGS OUT OF THE PLAYOFFS!!!!

Get the Minnesota Vikingsmug. Used to really mean genuinely nice, open, thoughtful and caring. Politically progressive, socially aware, doing for others, wanting to learn about other people and cultures.
I came to Minnesota 30 years ago, from New York City, where I grew up. New Yorkers aren't rude, we are just honest and efficient. I had had problems with passive aggressive people from other places who were "nice" to your face and back stabbing. So I was naturally leery of these Minnesota people. But no, they were really nice.
But things have been changing, even here. It is very sad to an aging peace/love hippie idealist. Still lots of cool folks though. Cool, like the weather.

When my new neighbor asked about my ethnic background, I thought she was prejudiced, but she was just being Minnesota nice and wanted to learn more about me.
I think a lot of Minnesota nice originated with the Scandanavian social customs and the need to pull together to survive the harsh winters during pioneer times.
Our late Senator Paul Wellstone was being Minnesota nice when he said "We all do better when we all do better."

Get the feeling minnesotamug. A city in Minnesota with a population on 103,486 at the 2009 estimate. The city is home to the Mayo Clinic and the world's largest IBM plant under one roof. One person said that every person's parent in Rochester works for Mayo or IBM, which is not true. IBM only employ's 5,000 people, and Mayo employ's 35,000. There are hundreds of other jobs. The city in a big attraction in SE Minnesota, where people from cities such as Winona, Dodge Center, Eyota, Byron, and other nearby cities from adjacent counties and in the metropolitan area go to. The cities has received several awards, such as being best cities to live (Top 3 in 1993 through 1997), and is said to become the fastest growing city in the U.S.A, and have more jobs than any other city.
I'm glad I live in Rochester, Minnesota. Far better than other cities. Rochester International Airport just needs more destinations.
