    My most recent new state visited was Wisconsin back in 2014. I was in MN (specifically southeast side of the twin cities) for several days for a work trip. My colleague and I were sharing a rental car, and we figured why not go across the state line just for funsies. We wound up driving to Prescott WI, stopped for some pictures right across the bridge, visited a liquor store on the edge of town, and returned to our hotel in MN.

    This was a very small sample size (about half an hour in total), so it’s hard to give a positive or negative recommendation based off of it.

    I will note for the record that nearly 6 million people live in WI. It’s implausible that they could all be wrong, so clearly there must be a decent amount of upside to the place. I hear UW Madison is an amazing university. They have MLB, NBA, and NFL teams. They like drinking. They have plenty of museums and touristy shit and natural scenery. If you went there for a week and didn’t try to eat all your meals from the nearest gas station, I’m sure you’d have a decent time.
