I guess the saying is true - you really never forget where you came from! That's the case with television star Peter Krause.

I discovered that he was from Minnesota when I started binge-watching the show he currently stars in. 9-1-1 is a huge hit and a brand new season premieres next week.

He was on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Thursday night (September 19th) and talked a LOT about his home state. (Fun fact: his character on the hit drama is also from Minnesota.)

In fact, a lot of of this eight-minute interview was made up of Minnesota talk, from the Minnesota State Fair to all those other Minnesota stereotypes we are all used to by now. Ha! The fun starts around the 1:30 mark.

How fun that his first job was at the Minnesota State Fair. That really is as Minnesotan as it gets! He was born in Alexandria and grew up in Roseville, just a few hours from Duluth.

He even stayed through college, which is another hilarious fact they touched up on in this fun late-night interview. Peter is serious on the show so it was fun for him to show off his lighter side!

If you loved the interview as much as I did and need a new binge-watch, check out 9-1-1. It is really fun with a lot of Minnesota connections and mentions. Who doesn't love that?
