Had to chuckle last month when CBS Minnesota recycled an old story about whether the "Land of 10,000 Lakes" had more lakes than Wisconsin. And, according to the story, it comes down to the definition of size. Whatever.
But, it reminded me of a billboard the Wisconsin Tourism Office playfully positioned in view of the Minnesota Tourism Office back in the early '90s. I sadly don't have a screen cap...but imagine this: a sensationally gorgeous image of a tree lined lake with the main verbiage across the top proclaiming, "Come to the Land of 15,000 Lakes."
And then, in the lower right corner, the line "And, ours have fish."
Still makes me laugh.
