What’s all this talk of beer in Wisconsin? I thought Thompson’s Water Seal was their beverage of choice…

Sure Navy, cuz there’s so much to do in Cadott, Eau Claire, Chippewa Falls and Lacrosse! Get real. We know you guys in WI need to have the beer goggles on when going out to the bars cow tippin in those towns you just mentioned. I guess that’s why all you Cheeseheads need to live in MN.

Doesn’t it seem a bit odd that the “fine folks” from Minnesota don’t seem to complain about Wisconsin when they head over to Cadott, Eau Claire, Chippewa Falls, LaCrosse, etc. I guess a few good beers tends to mellow them out. It’s certainly not as bad as going stone-cold sober “up Nort” and watching the Duluthaloes come roaming in off the Range.

Ahhhhhh…. Minnesota Nice! The “nice” part must be Wisonsin-code for [unprintable].

What a bunch of charm-school grads you are. Pat yourselves on the back.

I agree with you, but if MN changed their liqure laws we would have even more drunken ’sconies here.

We’re not worthy in Wisconsin…Obviously we can’t compete with Minnesota. I can’t wait until Playboy’s ‘Women of the Iron Range’ issue comes out. Some real hotties up there… Not to mention all the sweet spandex babes workin’ all the Casey’s General Stores from Brainard all the way to Moorhead.

I believe the Miss Beer Cart winner is presented with one of the Packer’s NFL Championship trophies. GB has so many that they can just give them away. Maybe that’s why Mini-soda doesn’t have this fine event. Cheers!

For those who would bash Wisconsin over Miss Beer Cart…..I’d rather have Wisc’s liquor laws than the idiotic, conservative liquor laws in Minn.

In a “mentioned for whatever it’s worth” post … and it’s not worth much … Barb Franke, who held the University of Wisconsin women’s basketball career scoring record until last year, used to also be a beer-cart girl at University Ridge Golf Course during her days with the Badgers. If Franke is still a beer-cart girl now, I guess it means things didn’t quite work out for her pro basketball career.
