  • "Way to represent fellow Minnesotans!"

Actress Noel Neill was indeed born in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Her accent can occasionally be detected.

Spoken as a pair of accordionists enter, this could refer to either Frankie Yankovic or "Weird Al" Yankovic, both of whom are well-known accordion players.
