Mankato Edit Meaning

1.

City in Blue Earth County in the U.S. state of Minnesota. Original name was actually "Mahkato," until some white dweeb misread it. Home of Minnesota Vikings summer training camp, the last remaining 40-foot Happy Chef statue, and the largest mass execution in U.S. history (December 26, 1862, 38 Dakota Native Americans hanged). Motto: "A Little Twin Cities, A Lot Minnesota." Named the 14th "most livable micropolitan in America."

I used to think Mankato was a big city.

2.

Southern Minnesota town, misspelled Native American word meaning "Blue Skunk." Originially named Mahkato, meaning "Blue Earth" after the highly sought after blue clay found on the banks of the Minnesota River.

Mankato really smells like a Blue Skunk.

3.

A town that is way to small. A college town with parties.

Mankato is too boring!
