I don't know about you but I've had some pretty awesome 4th of July celebrations here in Minnesota, so it comes as no surprise that our state has two cities on Wallethub's list of best places to celebrate Independence Day.

The folks at Wallethub did their magic math to determine how some of the largest cities in the United States balance the cost of the holiday (everything from travel to hamburger buns) while still having fun.

Researchers looked at things such as length of fireworks shows, gas prices, the number of festivals and other similar activities.  They also used the weather forecast to help make their determination.

Apparently Minnesotans have it goin' on because St. Paul took the third spot and Minneapolis came in at #1!  How awesome is that?
