A strange Minnesota wedding tradition is the Polka. Every wedding I have ever been at has included a Polka of some variety and everytime it starts the crowd goes wild. Old and young pour onto the dance floor to twirl and spin themselves into a Bavarian trance brought about by beer and accordian music. I used to think it was the stupidest thing, but I now find that I have grown fond of the Polka and I am not really sure why. Who needs a good reason to Polka? Not me, and definitely not Sonja. Here is a short 40 second clip of her first polka (beer barrel style)
