One of Minnesota's biggest events suffered a major blow yesterday when a massive fire broke out and burned several buildings and hundreds of vendor booths to the ground.
For their 50th anniversary, magic and comedy act Penn and Teller will be returning to the stage where it all began: the Minnesota Renaissance Festival.
Penn & Teller, made up of Penn Jillette (the tall, talkative one) and Teller (the short, silent one), have been performing together for 50 years. And believe it or not, it all started here in Minnesota.
Drawing inspiration from the Minnesota State Fair's drive-thru food parade, the Minnesota Renaissance Festival shared an update late last week to say that they would be offering a drive-thru "Renaissance Festival on Parade" this year instead.
