A little late to the party, but Lewis Black said it best:
"I love Wisconsin. I love coming here. I perform here a lot because I've discovered you people apparantly have some sort of federal grant for drinking. It's insane. You pay less for liquor than anywhere I know in the country. Nobody pays less for liquor than you. What do you... how? I don't know if you're using that farm subsidy money or if you're just hijacking liquor trucks, but this is f*king insane. Its volume is unbef*ckinglievable. It's staggering. I come here because basically, if I spend four days here drinking and even with the plane ticket it's cheaper than drinking in New York. How do you know when it's New Years? That's the big mystery to me. What's the difference? I've been in bars here and it's like New Year's every f*ck night! 'Oh New Year's, that's when we drink with hats on.' I've been drunker here than anyplace else I've ever been in my life. And remember this, you are not, you are not alcoholics. You, and my hat is off, are professionals."
That's all, nothing constructive to add.
