"Jordan,
30 miles and a world away
from Minneapolis. Such a
sublime bit of Americana,
the only thing missing is
Garrison Keillor doing the
play-by-play."
- Jim Caple, Senior Writer
ESPN.com, March 2006
"The Minnesota River town of
Jordan is a hidden treasure
on par with Stillwater,
although it feels more like
a hometown."
- Melissa Gilman, Associate
Editor "Let's Go!", April
