About this title

Synopsis

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