For some reason, all Minnesotans seem to find joy in the fact that people not from here butcher our town names. Recently, the Everton Football Club from Liverpool tried their hand at giving fans in Minnesota a shoutout, and it was a real struggle.

While they were here, the Minnesota United TikTok account had the Liverpool players thank their Minnesota fans by calling specific towns by name.

These poor players limped their way through the challenging scripts repeatedly asking, "are these real places?"

Crule prank, or harmless jest. I'll let you decide, check out the TikTok for yourself below:
