That Minnesota enough for ya? Not that the Wild are for sale, but you never know unless you make an offer. Their current value is around $380 million. You could split the prize, take the cash option, buy the Wild, and still have money left for a Parise jersey.

1.28 billion decorated cupcakes from Cold Spring Bakery (available in Cold Spring & Waite Park). Sharing would be highly recommended-- but we're not judging.

According to the Cooking Channel, ingredients for a (well greased) 9 x 13 pan of the Minnesota classic 'Tater Tot Hot Dish' run about ten bucks -- which by my math says you can make about 140 million times. Too much of a good thing? Never!

WE Fest was purchased for abut $23 million this past year, which by your new standards is pocket change. If you don't want to actually own the event -- you could just purchase 3-day passes for 15,000 of your friends to each festival for the next 549 years. Beer not included.

There's nothing quite like a freshly filled growler of Beaver Island Brewing's 'Ripple' ale. (I also like the fact that you can pick one up on Sunday when you forgot got get beer for the Vikings game). Cost of a growler, $16. Cost of 87 million growlers -- priceless.

With a price tag of $24 million, it won't even be a challenge for you. It's the Pillsbury Mansion in Wayzata -- and it's a bargain as the price has been reduced from the original listing at $53 million. You can see it HERE. You're mortgage will be about $95,000 per month (oh wait, you're probably going to pay cash).

What's tastier than a cheeseburger & bag full of fries from Val's Rapid Serv here in St. Cloud? 364 million bags of awesomeness, that's what! (Crap, I forgot to figure in those 5-cent cups of ketchup.)

The current value of the Minnesota Twins is listed at $895 million. If you take the cash payout you're gonna come up a little short -- but if any team should understand coming up a little short it's the Minnesota Twins. Take the full value $1.4 billion annuity and get them to take payments.
