♪ ♪ >> ERIC: IT’S MINNESOTA HISTORY TIME.

LAST WEEK, WE ASKED YOU ABOUT A MYSTERY PERSON.

DEFINITELY NOT SEEN HERE.

HE OR SHE LIVED AND WENT TO SCHOOL IN THE TWIN CITIES FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME IN 1984.

THIS PERSON WENT ON TO HAVE A VERY SUCCESSFUL CAREER AND IS HONORED IN A HALL OF FAME.

IN 2018, THEY RETURNED TO THE TWIN CITIES AND, WHILE IN TOWN, VISITED THEIR FORMER ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.

YOUR TASK WAS SIMPLE.

WHO IS THIS MYSTERY PERSON?

THESE NEXT CALLERS MISSED THE MARK.

>> ERIC: NO.

NO.

AND REALLY NO.

FOR THIS WEEK'S RIGHT ANSWER, TAKE IT AWAY, MARK.

>> ERIC: YES, MARK, YOU ARE CORRECT.

THERE'S PEYTON MANNING AND HIS MOM TOURING TANGLEN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IN 2018 WHEN HE WAS IN TOWN FOR THE SUPER BOWL.

PEYTON ATTENDED THIRD GRADE THERE WHILE HIS DAD ARCHIE DONNED A VIKINGS UNIFORM THAT SEASON.

QUICK NOTE BEFORE WE GO TONIGHT.

THE GREAT MINNESOTA GET-TOGETHER STARTS NEXT THURSDAY, AND THAT MEANS ONE WEEK FROM TODAY, WE CONTINUE OUR STATE FAIR SHOW TRADITION.

FOR MORE THAN A DECADE, TWIN CITIES PBS AND MPR NEWS HAVE TEAMED UP TO CREATE A SPECIAL STATE FAIR EDITION OF "ALMANAC."

CIRCLE THE DATE ON YOUR CALENDAR.

FRIDAY, AUGUST 22ND.

11:00 A.M.

IN THE MORNING, WE WILL BE AT THE MPR BOOTH AT THE CORNER OF JUDSON AND NELSON, NEAR THE DAIRY BUILDING.

WE'LL BE LIVE ON THE RADIO AND RECORDING THE SHOW FOR TV THAT EVENING ACROSS THE STATE.

SO COME CHECK IT OUT.

WE'VE GOT A GREAT SHOW LINED UP FOR YOU.

THANKS TO DANA FERGUSON FROM MPR NEWS FOR HELPING US OUT TONIGHT.

SHE'LL JOIN MARY LAHAMMER NEXT WEEK AT THE FAIR TO CHAT POLITICS.

WE HAVE JUST ENOUGH TIME LEFT FOR SOME SHOW-ENDING MUSIC FOR YOU FROM THE ARCHIVES.

THIS WEEK IN 2021, GUITARIST PAT DONOHUE JOINED US HERE IN STUDIO "B."

TAKE A LISTEN.

AND WE'LL SEE YOU NEXT WEEK AT THE FAIR!

AND BE CAREFUL.
