I have family in Milwaukee (my dad's from Wisconsin, mom's from Minnesota), and I go back to Wisconsin all the time. And let me tell you, I can totally see that happening. They race lawn mowers in Wisconsin. Ah, good old Wisconsin. The biggest thing in my dad's hometown in northern Wisconsin (where I am forced to spend my vacations), is the county fair every August, and Mardi Gras in the middle of July. Yes, I know...Mardi Gras in the middle of July. It's kind of weird. It's fun, they've got rides and contests and such, but still a little random. Come to think of it, so it the float parade on the river, with the Mardi Gras Queen nominees.
