It is absolutely no secret that people from Wisconsin love to drink. It`s one of the few things I actually like about Wisconsin. They KNOW how to have a good time. One of my favorite "maps" is the one that shows how many bars per person each state has.

Wisconsin more than doubling Illinois is very funny. Sure, Montana and North Dakota check in with higher numbers but that`s because there`s like 7 people living there. 2 or 3 extra bars will throw things out of wack. I`ve never been to either of those states but from what I`ve heard, the drinking there is more functional because there is literally nothing else to do, and not many people to not do things with. I still firmly believe that there is no good reason for us to have 2 Dakotas. I`m big Team Megakota.

But Wisconsin is mostly fun drinking. It can certainly be overdone, but I`ve never had a bad time going out in Wisconsin.
