Lutefisk Toss: Minnesota’s Wild Tradition

Get ready to witness the wild and wacky Lutefisk Toss in Two Harbors, Minnesota — a frozen fish-throwing showdown that’s been turning heads for nearly 30 years. Teams like the VASA Swedish Lodge and Sons of Norway battle it out, hurling slippery lutefisk into a bucket 20 feet away, with the fish getting softer and more unpredictable as the July heat kicks in. Started by proud Norwegians who also built a Viking ship float for parades, this quirky tradition has become a festival staple, complete with ukulele commentary, lutefisk-themed tunes, and even open participation for spectators. This year’s event is July 10th at 4 PM — a hilarious, heartwarming tradition that proves sometimes the most memorable moments come from the most unexpected places.
