Walz demonstrated Minnesota Nice side

I just wanted to take a minute to share with you a little slice of the everyday, behind-the-scenes side of Tim Walz.

I am one of his “Over-the-Hill” supporters. One hot evening this summer I decided to walk in the Albert Lea parade. I was hot, red-faced and tired by the end of the parade and we all had to walk nearly a mile back to our cars. When the car came to pick up Walz, he looked over at me and offered me his special seat in the car. I refused, but he insisted. He walked the long way back and I was grateful to be able to hitch the ride back to my car.

Just so you all know ...Walz is Minnesota Nice.
