Wisconsin Cranberry Bog Creates Stunning Milwaukee Brewers Logo

A cranberry blog in Wisconsin is showing off their Milwaukee Brewers pride in a REALLY big way, and it's something you have to see to believe.

Rules for Illinoisans in Wisconsin

As an Illinois resident who spends a lot of time in Wisconsin, there are two things you should never do:

Wear a Chicago Bears shirt to a Wisconsin bar.
Wear a Chicago Cubs shirt to a Wisconsin bar.

Doing either of those things means you'll hear plenty of smack talk and FIBS comments, so I prefer to just keep my Illinoisan stuff on the downlow when I'm up North.

For many Chicago Cubs fans, seeing the Milwaukee Brewers play in the World Series will be a tough pill to swallow, but you have to admit that the excitement is contagious.

Brewers Excitement in Wisconsin

I recently came across a story on social media about a cranberry bog in Wisconsin that has gone to great lengths to show off their Milwaukee Brewers pride. Then I discovered that this cranberry bog is one I drive by often, because it is located in Wisconsin Rapids, which is just over 20 minutes from my family's cabin!

Gottschalk Cranberries President Fawn Gottschalk recently told WAOW, "in the cranberry industry, teamwork makes the dreamwork, just like the Brewers," so they wanted to do something awesome to wish the Milwaukee Brewers luck.

And what they came up with is incredible!

Gottschalk Cranberries teamed up with the Wisconsin State Cranberry Growers to create this massive logo in its bog, and the project required some expert help.

Kris Parker, Board Member of the Wisconsin State Cranberry Growers Association, told WAOW:

I took the Brewers mit and traced it in a CAD program, then took the CAD lines and brought them out into the cranberry bed, and positioned them where they wanted it.

This video offers a behind-the-scenes look at how they made the display. So cool!

Good luck, Milwaukee Brewers. Even us FIBS are rooting for you to go all the way!
