Yes, it's really happening. There's nothing you can do about it now. Super Bowl LII, and the week of parties and corporate hobnobbing leading up to it, absolutely and positively will be held in the Twin Cities of Minnesota.
It's a region stocked with natural beauty, great schools and a major corporate presence. But in January and February? It's cold. The sun goes down early and rises late. You betcha. (People don't actually say that in Minnesota, but old stereotypes die hard.)
You don't have a choice, so why not make the best of it? We Minnesotans do.
