I was actually trying to remember the name of the town (Hibbing) for a few days last week, but you guys beat me to it. We've actually touched on this about 5 years ago: viewtopic.php?f=13&t=2356&hilit=hibbing

Be sure to click on the Flickr link at the bottom of the thread. That is actually a video that you will want to watch. :TUP2:
