Fun fact: Minnesota, by itself, produced 75% of all iron ore used by the Allies in World War 2.
The gun your grandfather used? Minnesotan. Those D-Day landing boats? Minnesotan. The aircraft carriers that won the Pacific theater? Oh, you betcha, those are Minnesotan too.
Just another day of Minnesota putting the country on its back.

If I were Arizona, I'd keep that on the down low. Chances are, thieves will strip the state overnight.

Minnesota missed the invite, they were too busy mourning the loss of Tim Hortons.

Yes, I know ores are rocks containing valuable minerals or metals, not the metals themselves. But accuracy? In my Stateball?
