What else are going to do when living in Wisconsin means being suddenly bludgeoned by snow at any given moment?
You get drunk and roll it into a giant ten foot snowball in the middle of the street.
According to CNN iReport: During the blizzard on Dec 8 and Dec 9th 2009 – since the University of Wisconsin decided to close camps for the 9th, the night of the 8th became a night that everyone decided to go out and get drunk and play in the snow. This is what the students decided to create with the snow… A giant snowball, and they left it in the middle of University Avenue. The police came and made sure no cars hit it.
In honor of all of the fucked up things psychopaths from Wisconsin have said in the media, I decided to start this new category for infamous quotes from Wisconsin psychopaths.
To kick it all off, here is one from a case I just learned about from a true crime show:
“If I ever get enough money to come back to the state of Wisconsin, I will do away with all of you.” – Andrew Krnak, in a letter to his family while attending college in North Carolina a few years before his mother, father, brother, and the family dog went missing.
Andrew Krnak, who legally changed his name to Derek Anderson just days after his family’s disappearance, was found guilty of his father’s murder in 2006. The rest of the family has never been found.
Andy Griffith Running For Grant County Sheriff Music Store Owner Changes Name For Election
PLATTEVILLE, Wis. — A familiar name will be on the Nov. 7 ballot for sheriff in Grant County: Andy Griffith
No, not that Andy Griffith, but a Platteville man has legally changed his name to the man who famously portrayed TV’s fictional sheriff of Mayberry and he said that he hopes the move will get him elected, WISC-TV reported.
Here is a classic, and my personal favorite, from the archives of weird Wisconsin news, providing a true testament to the Wisconsin mentality:
Hermaphroditic deer with seven legs ‘tasty’ Wisconsin hunter bags odd beast with pickup in driveway, eats it
Thursday Dec. 14th, 2006
FOND DU LAC, Wis. – Rick Lisko hunts deer with a bow but got his most unusual one driving his truck down his mile-long driveway. The young buck had nub antlers — and seven legs. Lisko said it also had both male and female reproductive organs. “It was definitely a freak of nature,” Lisko said. “I guess it’s a real rarity.”
An Oscar Meyer Wienermobile crashed into the home and outdoor deck of Nick Krupp in Racine, Wis. on Friday morning, July 17, 2009. According to a witness, the vehicle was parked in the driveway. The driver lurched the vehicle forward instead of backing out of the driveway, hitting Krupp’s deck and cracking the foundation of his house.
