Miss Wisconsin Wins 2012 Miss America In This Year Of The Cheesehead

As if two Rose Bowl appearences by the Wisconsin Badgers, a Super Bowl XLV win, the St. Norbert Mens Hockey Championship, the U.W. Badgers Womens Hockey Championship, the best season record in Packers history, the White House Christmas tree being from Wisconsin, and massive protests last year in Madison wasn’t enough to prove this is … Continue reading

The Tipsy Cow In Madison’s Capital Square Is Divine

All we can say is, order the cheeseburger lunch special made with, get this, meat, bun, a slab of butter, and Carr Valley 5 Year Cheddar.  That’s all!  If you want onions raw or grilled, they’ll add that too, and the side of pickles is…  Well just end up their and some point in your … Continue reading

A Bummer Day For Bucky At The Rose Bowl (2012)

While the game turned out to be a bummer of a loss, it was great to be in Pasadena at the Rose Bowl with so many Badgers fans.  We talked to dozens of people from all over the state, many of whom where first time visitors to California.  The show of support was tremendous and … Continue reading

Wisconsin Badgers – Party At The Pier in Santa Monica California

We attended the Wisconsin Badgers “Party At The Pier” event in Santa Monica California for all things Bucky and a sea of red.  Despite the dense fog and Madison like weather (or perhaps because of), it was phenomenal to see thousands of Wisconsin fans, fellow Cheeseheads, and the entire Badgers football team and coaching staff … Continue reading

Chateau St. Croix & The Cheesehead White Wine

In honor of the New Year we thought it only fitting to talk about one of Wisconsin’s lesser known attractions, its wineries.  Just like the breweries all over the state, micro-wineries have become quite popular and prosperous for embracing the cheesehead culture as part of what they are all about.  We had the pleasure of … Continue reading

Don’t Mess With Firefly, Especially At U.W. Stout

This is a particularly interesting video about what happens when political correctness gets in the way of free speach.  It’s involves Professor James Miller at U.W. Stout and his love of the Joss Wheadon classic TV show “Firefly”, and features an interview with author (and brilliant thinker) Neil Gaiman, as well as ample footage shot … Continue reading

Janesville On A Rainy Day…

On a follow up visit to Janesville after the Lombardi Dedication night event we encountered a bit of September rain and it made for a beautiful day.  Janesville is such a sleepy town despite it size, with pleasant neighborhoods, and a gorgeous riverfront.  The pictures tell the story much better than we can so we’ll … Continue reading

The Bodega Brew Pub In La Crosse

While taking a day trip to La Crosse to check out what was there, we happened upon the Bodega Brew Pub in Historic Downtown.  It’s easy to fall in love with La Crosse the minute you drive through it for its rustic “Industrial Wisconsin” flavor, the edge of the water vibe, and a downtown area … Continue reading

The Quaint Little Humbird Cheese Shop In Tomah

While driving down I-94 heading to Madison this fall, we saw the giant sign with a mouse and cheese on it and, as we do every time we encounter a Wisconsin cheese shop, we pulled over to check it out.  It was a quaint place with some rather interesting exterior decore, and of course terrific … Continue reading

A Wisconsin Winter Wonderland In Pictures…

Being that it’s Christmas Eve yet there may not be snow on the ground all over the state just yet this winter, enjoy these fantastic “Wisconsin Winter” photos submitted to us by a terrific photographer and artist out of Chippewa Falls who’s talent seems to know no bounds…  Here’s to the BADGERS winning the ROSE … Continue reading
