Did the Norwegian immigrants row away in annoyance when they saw the inhabitants of New York City?
I am a Norse-American and was a studying my heritage's history in the United States. Apparently, when my family a rowed a over here in their Viking longships to Ellis Island they were not a too flattered with the funny looking big nosed New York people, so they immediately started rowing away from Ellis Island chanting HEAVE! HO! repeatedly. Fortunately my family found their way to a Minnesota.
