A comedian and Netflix actor recently came out and said that this Minnesota city is the BEST city he has ever visited. Comedian and Tires on Netflix co-star Stavros Halkias appeared on the podcast Pardon My Take recently and divulged that the 'Best City' that he has ever visited was just 50 minutes from Saint Cloud. 

Stavros Halkias, who originally hails from Baltimore, was talking to Pardon My Take recently and the conversation ended up being about some of the places that he had been recently. Stavros, who is is currently on a comedy tour, was also promoting Season 2 of the Netflix comedy Tires when he was asked about what the best city he has ever been to was. I was a little surprised by his answer, as he picked a city that many outsiders think is the capital of Minnesota, Minneapolis.

According to Stavros, Minneapolis had everything he was looking for including the Mississippi River, which he seemed concerned about. Check out this clip from the podcast below!

Stavros did mention Madison, Wisconsin, but it wasn't enough for the comedian.

So what did he like about Minneapolis? Well, he mentioned:

  • Incredible food, he shouts out Billy's Sushi
  • The lakes
  • Mississippi River (he was concerned about the river being so far north)
  • Saunas
  • and heated pools

Not a bad list, and there is a lot to like about what he listed, too.
