[QUOTE]FOSSTON, MINN. — Famed as the home of Paul Bunyan’s kid brother, the site for the county incinerator and the YouTube sensation “Straight Outta Fosston,” this little town on the eastern end of Polk County is now famous for something else: Possibly the largest number of Chuck Norris fans per capita.
Oh, you think we’re kidding?
Wednesday morning, 120 students and staff members from the high school gathered to celebrate Chuck’s 70th birthday party, wearing T-shirts with the craggy visage of the eternally squinting, butt-kicking, name-taking, karate-chopping star of such hits as Invasion U.S.A., Delta Force and, of course, Walker, Texas Ranger.
They even held an impromptu roundhouse kicking competition in honor of Chuck’s signature finishing move, though Chuck’s kicks are usually repeated in slo-mo from different camera angles.
The students sold another 50 T-shirts, which given the population of Fosston, makes at least 10 percent of the city Chuck Norris fans. At his peak in the winter of 1996, Walker, Texas Ranger had 13.7 million viewers, which was a little more than 5 percent of the population at the time.
The genius behind this movement is an eighth grader named Christian Landsverk. He made the T-shirts in art class, thought he’d sell it to five of his pals and ended up selling 170.
“It got out of hand,” he said in that nervous manner that people have when they’re not sure what just happened.[/QUOTE]
