It was a week-long celebration of local potato production in the northern Red River Valley last week with the Potato Bowl. Festivities included the World’s Largest French Fry Feed, presented by Simplot. Northern Plains Potato Growers Association President Donavon Johnson says “it’s always a fun celebration.” This year’s Potato Bowl Parade grand marshal was Mike Delisle, who owns Mayo Manufacturing. The University of North Dakota defeated Northern Iowa in the Saturday football game.
