A pretty incredible piece of Gustavus Adolphus College trivia is that John Denvers Leaving on a Jet Plane is about a Gustie, Annie Martell, and apparently, was written on the hill. Denver and Martell were married in Christ Chapel in 1967. But John has been arriving or leaving on a jet plane since they met in 1966. He had just replaced Chad Mitchell in the folk-singing trio. After a concert at Gustavus Adolphus College in Saint Peter, Minn., he spotted a pretty sophomore in the student union.
