You serious Clark? If so, I hope you're taking the car ferry across the lake.

Only place I could find was in Fond Du Lac! Was hoping to get closer but it was a late gift for my b-day.

People in Wisconsin call it "fondle sack".

Because that's funny.

And this, even though it's a terrible wisconsin accent, and Fondle Sack isn't in SE Wisconsin.

I'm staying in Milwaukee, but wouldn't mind shooting over to Madison for a day (Friday). Do any Wisconsin have any experience with "Badger Bus"? It looks like there are buses that go back and forth daily between Madison and Milwaukee. Any thoughts/experiences?

By far the most popular bus that goes between Madison and Milwaukee.

check out Port Washington Wi. for lodging. 1/2 hour north of Milwaukee right on Lake Michigan. It is a very easy 90 mile drive to Lambeau on freeway thru farm fields. Very familiar with Milwaukee and Chicago, moved up here 15 years ago. I have 15 relatives coming up for game. Can try to answer any questions

You work for the chamber of commerce?

I would caution anyone that on the morning of a big game, the traffic coming in on 172 is seriously backed up.

We are staying at a B$B on a Lake Michigan beach near Algoma, WI, some 35 minutes east of Green Bay.

Gameday traffic from Milwaukee or Madison will be HORRIBLE.

You're gonna be driving through Casco on the way in. My mom was born and raised on a farm in Casco.

Casco, coincidentally, does have a supper club, despite having a population of less than 600 people. #represent

For those of us staying in Madison Friday and driving up Saturday morning, what kind of commute are we looking at? Not familiar with the highway system at all there.
