Summer in Milwaukee is the best; summer in the Midwest is even better. Join Milwaukee Record and Miller High Life as we search the city and beyond for the Spirit Of Summer.
If there’s one thing that’s synonymous with Wisconsin summers, it’s Wisconsin Dells. The gloriously wonderful/weird tourist destination has been pulling in visitors with its natural beauty, its plethora of waterparks, and its random robot worlds practically since its founding (by Milwaukee co-founder Byron Kilbourn) in 1857. Also, anyone remember that weird Xanadu house that was made out of foam? And The Wonder Spot? Crazy.
Anyway, here’s a ton of Wisconsin Dells commercials and videos from the ’70s, ’80s, ’90s, ’00s, and today.
