I am starting to think that answering "Ferris" is a given answer in any quiz concerning movies, movie quotes, fiction and so on. Maybe not on the oscars, but ... a bit much?

Please make either just "freddy" or "krueger" acceptable. Right now it's making you type the whole name. You also technically have "krueger" spelled wrong. Thank you!

What are you talking about? I've never seen any source that leaves Kansas off a list of the midwestern states. From Britannica: " The Midwest, as defined by the federal government, comprises the states of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin."

I suppose it's just weird to me that the Midwest is such a large region with so many states that often have little to do with one another. The other main regions of the USA seem way more alike. I also think I conflate Midwest and Rust Belt in my mind.

I must admit, I was unaware that there was any type of backstory for either the Jolly Green Giant or McGruff the Crime Dog.

In the case of the Jolly Green Giant, Le Sueur, MN was just where the Minnesota Valley Canning Company (later the Green Giant Company) was originally founded. And of course, they would hire a local boy to be the brand ambassador!

I always thought that the crime dog's name was Scruff McGruff. After looking it up, it seems that was his nephew. Who knew?
