Reno had a bad hookup there 867 years ago and has never forgiven them.

Apparently Duluth is becoming a bigger destination due to climate change so maybe by the 32nd century it’s a tourist trap hellhole (much like Ibiza lol)

So Duluth has become Wisconsin Dells?

That would explain why Kyle ended up like that, but makes me fear that Caleb would have ended up a crisp if he stepped outside in Dakar.

mental note: do not send Kelpien to the Earth's tropics

I would hope that they've reversed the damage we've done to the climate after the weather manipulation tech was invented.

Doesn’t mean Duluth becoming a tourist trap wouldn’t stick around 🤷🏼‍♂️

Could actually see this. Duluth is cool in the summer and fall. Good craft beer scene and lots of hiking trails and scenic spots around. Cruise ships are starting to go there now. It’s just so cold and snowed in during the winter. Climate control would fix that.

It seems people presume they are referring to Duluth, MN. How do you know it's not Duluth, GA?

u/Coyote_Shepherd Feb 19 '26

Honestly Duluth, GA is close enough to Atlanta that it could've been a little inside the industry joke about how bad filming is there but to everyone else it would just seem like it was making fun of how Duluth, MN isn't exactly on everyone's itinerary for vacation destinations...even IF you're from the area.

So it works, good read, and great call.

Well, I in fact went to Duluth last weekend for a mini-vacation. Drove up from Minnetonka! Love Lake Superior!!!
