The funniest Milwaukee-specific Olympic events

The Olympics have begun! During the summer games, there will be hundreds of races, matches, and rounds for the dozens of events. Every time the Olympics comes around it seems certain countries always do well in certain sports. That led me to an idea.

So I went out to Milwaukee's Third Ward to ask people that question. Some of the responses I got were: who can have the longest Midwestern goodbye, a cow milking contest, who could eat the most Kwik Trip Glazers, who can bash the Chicago Bears the most, and more.

Watch the story to see what other Wisconsin-specific events people came up with...
