Family road trip through Blue Earth, Minnesota captures spontaneous car conversations about the Jolly Green Giant statue, Dairy Queen stops, and gift shop souvenirs. They're posting photos to social media, joking about cows on the road, and navigating with GPS while planning hotel stops.
We're in Blue Earth, Minnesota. That's what you're going to put on camera?
You got to use the bathroom?
I can't believe that's the first thing you say on camera.
Madison, you awake?
Oh, I see him! I see him!
Somebody wake Madison up! Look, I see it!
Where? I see it too!
I don't see nothing!
I don't see nothing! We saw it to the right.
We saw it to the right of that tree.
Madison! I saw it near the Dairy Queen sign. Yeah, I went to the Dairy Queen.
I'll see the Dairy Queen sign now.
You didn't see it? No. Oh, I'm sorry. You'll see it. Yeah, I hope so. That's sad. There it is! Of all things, just let me through. Good thing it's in front of a Dairy Queen. Look at that.
Green Giant Lane.
Turn left now.
Because this is where the, uh, she looked it up, this is where the, uh, factory used to be that made Green Giant Fruits.
Your destination is ahead on the right. Oh, but it's not here anymore though. You have arrived at your destination on the right. Route guidance is now finished. It looks so cheesy in the picture.
All right, say that again. That was cooler than I expected, Dad.
It was fantastic.
What, you didn't think the Jolly Green Giant was going to be cool? I kind of thought it was going to be lame, to be honest. Madison, what'd you think?
That was actually pretty cool. We all are in the Ford of Hot Messes economy.
I mean, I don't know how you couldn't like the Jolly Green Giant. It's a one of a kind. It's the only place in the world you can see this. Yeah, what's next on the agenda? Let's, uh, let's put the hotel in here.
I need you to put my picture out there. What are you talking about?
You go, you go, you're the, you're the navigator.
Huh?
You're the navigator, right?
But, uh, can you put my Green Giant picture out there? You put everything else out there.
I wasn't going to do any Facebook to the end of the day when I put it on the computer, cuz I put them on the camera.
That sucks. People think we didn't do anything all day.
Oh, they'll see it.
I'll post a picture of the heck out of you.
There you go. I have to tag my mom and her mom too because they want to see all of it.
They can't see it if you just—
well, um, I'm pleased that everyone liked the Jolly Green Giant statue. There's like 30 more things like that along the way. I don't know if the Scooby-Doo van's going to rate up there with the Jolly Green Giant statue, but Jolly Green Giant statue wins.
I'm an everyday person.
I'm an every minute person. If I'm up, I'm happy. As Bass gets up, he just—
she's like, that's why she's quiet, leave her alone.
She's smiling, it's like, Bass, hey, you want some breakfast?
Did I ask for breakfast? If I wanted breakfast, I would I've told you I wanted breakfast. Now go die.
She knows it's true.
Look at her laughing back there. This is— oh yeah, that's right. He just said right there. You had to snooze, man.
No, I wasn't to snooze.
It was the amp error or something like that.
Jerry, power outage. Totally, uh, Kramer blew power in the building.
People was hot dogging.
John Pierre.
John Paul. John Paul. It's a park. All parks have cops. Scared me. They blocked the entrance. You know what?
Well, we just saw one that we saw a Time magazine.
It was in the picture. Time Magazine's top 50 roadside attractions. OMG, we can't get across. Oh, don't hit it! I'm not gonna hit the cows. Hey, fellas, they're gonna get out of the way of the car. Look, look, he's like Wasn't that cool? Well, the cow—
the cows in the road was still interesting.
They are, they are, they are having fun at my expense. Oh, there's a gift shop up there too.
That was funny. Y'all are funny.
Oh, that's probably a nice old man too.
Yeah. I don't think you're making fun of him. I think you're making fun of me.
I know. Let me just make sure I understand this. There's a road that takes us up here, right?
I have no idea. I have no idea. You got the pamphlet.
I mean, I'm not mentally ready to go up this deep here, you know.
I told you today was— I told you today was a hike day.
I'm not mentally ready.
GoPro 5?
No, they already make a GoPro Session.
That's technically the 5, so yeah. What does it do different? It's like—
look, it's moving.
Jonas just asked, are we crossing the border? It's taking so long to, uh, get here.
So I am. He got us from his dad.
Thank you, Madison. No, Madison knows I'm funny.
Everybody who used to work with me You know, you know I'm funny. I'm funny. Funny looking.
Serving Wyoming-raised buffalo burgers, cowboy and Indian souvenirs, Native American pottery t-shirts. Isn't it funny how they got cowboy and Indian and Native American all in the same paragraph? Why don't they say cowboy Native American souvenirs?
'Cause nobody understand that.
I ain't never saw no movies that cowboy— the cowboys and Native Americans, are they really going—
is there a, is there a drug problem up here too? Oh God, are these things for a sucker, man?
Everybody's asking, everybody's asking questions like that.
They are like right here. Hey, Billish, I'm sorry, I ain't got nothing.
Where's that granola?
Yeah, give an Oreo.
Is that legal?
It says do not feed the animals. Oh, is that what it says? Oh man, they're fighting over— yeah, all right. I will. Like everything else, I can, I can tell you where that $40 Batman I bought you is.
You sold it for a dollar at the yard sale. I played that, I played that stupid game. I know I spent $30 on that game.
