I've never seen a town with so many bars and so many churches.

"Milwaukee boasts the second-highest ratio of bars and taverns per capita, with one watering hole for every 1,600 people. (Settle those bar bets with the knowledge that St. Louis has the most bars per capita, while Mesa, Arizona, has the least.)"

If there's one thing Wisconsin knows, it's beer...and cheese....and being portly. Though you might be right about the churches, there still were a hell of a lot of them (half the population is Danish, and Catholic at that).
