Some Problems But Dang Funny!

Iowahawk does it again. He reports on the fallout of a Cowboy Fan making blasphemous images of Vince Lombardi!
Protestors demonstrated against the images throughout the Badger State yesterday, with violent egging and cow-tipping incidents reported in Oconomowac, Pewaukee, Sheboygan, Ozaukee, Antigo, Oshkosh, Waubeno, [sic] Wauwautosa, Waunewoc, Wyocena, Waubeka, and Washawonamowackapeepee.

But by far the fiercest demonstration took place in Green Bay's Lambeau Shrine parking lot where throngs of Packer faithful burned Texas flags and effigies of Roger Staubach as Lutheran pastors led them in chants of "Those who defame the Vince suck" and "Favre is Great." Many of the frenzied demonstrators were seen ritualistically beating themselves with mozzarella sticks.

The crowd eventually dispersed, lured away by local supper clubs and the nickel slots of nearby Oneida Bingo Casino, but Pastor Doug Schmidtke of Fond Du Lac's Grand Lutheran Temple threatened continued community unrest "until the infidels of Texas deliver an apology. And the head of Tom Landry in a paper bag."

Eye of a Storm

Over the past five years, the volatile Midwest has produced violent rage like the knockwurst output at Milwaukee's venerable Usinger's -- sudden, repeated, and in long unbroken strings. One of the principle catalysts was the rise the Uff Da insurgency, led by the enigmatic Pastor Duane Gunderson, who seek a unified Lutheran caliphate stretching from the Great Plains to Lake Huron, and the banning of non-Big 10/Pac 10 apostates from the Rose Bowl. Gunderson remains in hiding, but his influence was seen last year in the widely publicized Lutefisk desecration riots that rocked the Heartland amid the pancake breakfast holidays.

Seething Midwest Explodes Over Lombardi Cartoons


Some minor problems. First it is Wabeno, no U in it. Second, why not add in Manitowoc? That is a tongue twister for non-Wisconsites! Also, generally Wisconsin is more heavily Catholic. I have heard it said that Minnesota is the land of Lutheran Deer Hunters and Wisconsin the land of Catholic Deer Hunters, though admittedly one of the two Lutheran synods is named after Wisconsin.
