WELL, to be perfectly honest.....  I would've never guessed that. I had to reread your post because I didn't understand it the first time.

My first thought was "Yankton", but alas, I KNOW that's wrong.
I'm not good at this game. I'll just take my toys and go home now.

Never doubt your first guess Jammie. It was, in fact, Yankton. Good job.

Man, I'm going to have to guess on this one. Custer? My aunt lives just outside of Custer and last year I was showing her my GPS and I showed her that her house was at 5700 ft.

Did you know that the "First Commissioner" of the American Football League came from South Dakota? He did. What was his name?

gussler got it again!
Custer's elevation is exactly 5280 feet above sea level; the exact same as Denver's. Rapid City's is 3,202... quite a bit lower, but not nearly as low as Sioux Falls at 1,442 feet.
New Orleans: -6 feet
YIKES!
