Description
There's a lot more to the Badger State than badgers; it's also filled to the brim with weirdness. Visit Burlington's Spinning Top Museum and recoil at the worm shower of Palmyra. Take a look at Highway 13's Reptile Man, see the World's Largest Six Pack, then get spooked over the haunted bridges of Stevens Point. From Madison's Loony Lawyer to the Wily Wizard of Waukesha, this indispensible guide takes you on a journey you'll never forget.
