Fargo

A city of around 100,000 on the Eastern border of North Dakota alongside Moorhead, Minnesota (pop. 35,000) that has a metro population of around 200,000. Home of North Dakota State University. Lots of college-aged people in Fargo, but a majority of them move away by the time they reach 25. Very white, but there's starting to be a good influx of Latinos and African-Americans in the city. Only city in the US where you could die in the winter if you're not dressed properly.

Fargo is a typical average Midwestern small city.

Fargo

Fargo is a 1996 film by the Coen Brothers (Joel & Ethan Coen) about a car salesman named Jerry Lundegaard who has his wife kidnapped, getting his father-in-law to pay the ransom, and using that money to build a parking lot. The plan spirals out of control, involving several murders committed by various people. One of the most famous scenes involves one of the kidnappers feeding his accomplice through a woodchipper.

Fargo takes place mostly in the Minnesota city of Brainerd; the movie has become famous for its use of the quirky Minnesotan accent and the beautifully photographed snow landscapes. It is considered one of the best movies of the 90's and appears in film critic Roger Ebert's list of Great Movies.

Fargo is one of the best dark comedies ever made! Oddly enough, only one scene in the entire movie takes place in Fargo, Minnesota.

Fargo

A wonderful city in the Upper Midwest. It is the county seat of Cass County, as well as the largest city in the state of North Dakota. The city is not really bad at all, as there are many other far worse and dangerous places in this country. The jackass who called it a shithole in his definition obviously implies that the city is horrible, but he is very wrong.

Fargo is a great city. That must be why it had a movie made about it.

Fargo

A middle name for a cat. It has no purpose and no reason for being there however it's there anyways. Everyone will always ask you what Fargo means and most of the time I suggest to just ignore the question all together, but if they pressure you enough to break your head then tell them the truth...it's a shitty no point city that no one likes.

Fargo

Any act where someone doesn't think first, resulting in looking like a complete idiot.

That was so Fargo!

Fargo

A way to refer to a women you find attractive without being conspicuous.

I like the ending of Fargo but not the begginning.
(Meaning you like back side but not the front)

Did you see Fargo at 11 o'clock today?
(Meaning attractive women is in the direction of 11 o'clock)

Have you seen the sequel to Fargo?
(meaning you see 2 attractive women)
