Synopsis

This is a Minnesota love story with singing' and stuff....!  Don't Hug Me takes place in Bunyan Bay, Minnesota. It's the coldest day of the year and cantankerous bar owner, Gunner Johnson, wants to sell the business and move toe Florida.  Clara, his wife and former Winter Carnival Bunyan Queen, wants to stay. 

Bernice Lundstrom, the pretty waitress, wants to pursue a singing career.  Her finance, Kanute Gunderson, wants her to stay home. 

It's a battle of wills, and when a fast-talking salesman, Aarvid Gisselsen, promises to bring romance into their lives through the 'magic' of karaoke, all heck breaks loose!  It's "Fargo" meets "The Music Man" without the blood or the trombones!
