You Know You're From Wisconsin When...

You Know You're From Wisconsin When...

By Contributor

We have a feeling kimmie1323 laughs when non-Midwestern states complain about their snowfall... or any traffic jam that doesn't involve tractors. –Sparkitors

Aahh... picture this: the sun peeking through your window, waking you up at the crack of dawn, the cows outside your window serving as a mooing alarm clock, and to top it all off, the smell of fresh manure on the fields. Yes, my fellow Sparklers, this amazing, incredible, awesomesauce place is none other than the dairy state of Wisconsin! And this is how you know you're from Wisconsin:

-You measure distance in how many farms you pass. (i.e., "You'll get to an intersection after about six farms...")

-You have a "Teach Me How To Bucky Shirt."

-You've been slowed down by a tractor on the road at least five times.

-You've been the guy slowing down traffic with his tractor at least five times.

-You or someone you know lives on a farm.

-Your school's FFA (Future Farmers of America) club is bigger than the football team.

-Every time you see a "Happy Cows Come From California" commercial, you throw a temper tantrum and yell at the TV.

-School is never canceled, even when you have to dig your car out of three feet of snow in -15 degrees.

-You take pride in the Packers being the 2011 Superbowl champs!

-You laugh at anyone who thinks 45 degrees is cold.

You're either a Green Bay Packers fan or a Bears fan. And if you see one of the "others" in the street, you will kill them. With your bare hands. Imagine the Capulets and Montagues, only 100 times worse.

Any other Wisconsinites waking up to a real live cow alarm clock?
