CARLTON, Minn.- As local celebrations make a comeback after 2020, the streets of Carlton filled for the return of this year’s Carlton Daze parade led by quite a smart cookie – a Jeopardy champion and town native.
What is: hometown hero for 200? Cheers rained for 2019 Jeopardy tournament champion Sam Kavanaugh to lead the parade back down Highway 210 after a pandemic pause last year.
“You can’t really escape where you’re from, and I mean that in the best possible way, right? Like it’s always with you,” said Kavanaugh.
