Hodags, Beer Kegs & Dear Antlers Galore With Big Guy Hats & Lexxy The Cow

We had the great pleasure of visiting and interviewing Jeff Kahlow of Big Guy Hats in Fon Du Lac twice over the course of our filming and got to watch just what he does first hand.  Every hat Jeff makes is a one of a kind.  He makes these custom hats for die-hard fans, hunters, … Continue reading

Nueske’s Meats Are As Unique As Their Name

Our first taste of Nueske’s bacon was purely by accident and in California at that.  A friend brought some over and it was so good that someone blurted out half joking, half not that “this must be from Wisconsin”.  The back of the package revealed that it was true, a little town in the center … Continue reading

Fan Fun & The Joy Of Being 13 and 0…

13 & 0, or 13-0, or even thirteen and zero…  No matter how you say, show, or spell it, we are still undefeated.  To honor that, here are a few fan photos, unique perspective shots, and of course a Lombardi Trophy from the Hall of Fame (one more soon to be there) from various events … Continue reading

The Safe House In Milwaukee, Where Getting Out Is A Maze…

As mentioned yesterday, The Safe House in Milwaukee is a great place to go for lunch or dinner.  We forgot to mention that the food is just as good as the ambiance and fun of being in a spy themed place.  When you do finally get a chance to go there, make sure you ask … Continue reading

Milwaukee’s Safe House Is A Place Worth Finding, If You Can…

We visited the Safe House in Downtown Milwaukee a short while back and found it to be one of the most fascinating restaurants in the entire state of Wisconsin.  It’s a mystery and spy themed place that has so much going on inside (and underneath) that it’s hard to get to all of it in … Continue reading

2011 White House Christmas Tree Is A Fellow Cheesehead

As further evidence that we are a world class championship state, Schroeder Forevergreens located out of Neenah won the 2011 Grand National Championship thus the tree that is now in the White House in Washington D.C. is yet another of our fellow Cheeseheads (a wooded version, but a Cheesehead nonetheless).  With all of the cheese … Continue reading

Vintage Painter Christine Mount Kapp & Her Wisconsin Connection

We first met Christine Mount Kapp, Professional Oil Painter of Vintage and Americana styles of painting, at the Mitchell Park Domes in Milwaukee last August during their summer arts festival.  Immediately drawn to her work as for its evident Wisconsin and Midwest depictions, we were able to secure an interview with her a couple of months … Continue reading

A Shareholder For Life, And More…

Since some of us working on the documentary are proud shareholders of the Green Bay Packers, we thought it well suited to post evidence of that and share how we feel about such a thing.  Interestingly enough a fellow Cheesehead by the name of Ryan Glasspiegel who writes for the Sports Rapport wrote a far better summation on … Continue reading

Men Who Loves Roses, Metaphorically Speaking…

For the second straight year Badgers football made the Rose Bowl.  These men must really love roses…  We were there last year to shoot tailgating, and will be there again this year with hopefully an even greater presence.  And this time around we know what the hell we are doing so it will be that … Continue reading

The Lombardi Legacy: Dave Robinson & Royce Boyles

To honor the Green Bay Packers still undefeated 12 and 0 record, we thought we’d dig into a bit of the Packers past for this posting…  We had the great fortune of running into “The Lombardi Legacy” and “The Lombardi Impact” authors Dave Robinson, former Packers “Lombardi Era” legendary linebacker, and Royce Boyles during a … Continue reading
