Attractions

Tune in to see actor Jeff Daniels as a Buckless Yooper. In addition, learn about a professional baseball team’s mascot called Mr. Celery, and the Museum of Funeral Customs that has one focus — death.


Business

Ever drink an okra martini or lather up with a luxury soap named after the lowly boll weevil? Need live crickets – fast? Click here to find out more about these and other businesses that offer unusual products and services!


Dining

Pass the napkins, please. You can get a fried double bologna burger, or try a pig sandwich, green chili slopper or coffee potato ice cream. Wash everything down with a white birch beer from the Hall of Foam.


Oddities

Time out: A Division I college football game actually had a final score of 222-0. Also, somebody had to invent Mother’s Day, and a city called Skullbone got its name from hosting bare-knuckle boxing matches.


Festivals

What’s that smell? Be sure to attend a celebration that features outhouse races, then bring a breath mint to the annual Garlic Festival. In addition, applaud the lucky and deserving winner of the Slug Queen Pageant.
