Minnesota Library Releasing Limited Edition “Laser Loon” Library Card

You may remember that the state of Minnesota asked it’s residents to submit their design ideas for a new state flag.

To the delight of the internet, there were a lot of designs that were not only creative, but some were outright hilarious.

One in particular depicted a Common Loon (Minnesota’s state bird) shooting laser beams out of its eyes at a walleye. Why? I don’t know. The internet is weird.

That led to inspiration for the St Paul Public Library.

According to CBS News:

The St. Paul Public Library will soon offer a library card featuring the laser loon. It is only available to St. Paul residents, as are all St. Paul Library cards. Existing cardholders can get a laser loon sticker for their card or they can get a replacement card with the loon, but they will receive a new account number.

Hey. If it gets people reading and supporting their public library, I’m all the way for it.
