4p: State Fair Traditions

from Wisconsin's Afternoon News

This hour takes listeners across the Wisconsin State Fair, beginning with Bob Simi’s Lambeau Leap of Faith feature and the story behind one of the Packers’ most iconic traditions. We then visit the Wisconsin Building, where Tony and John Ranieri of Sheboygan Pasty Company share the story behind their popular fair favorite and Wisconsin food tradition. Later, we look back at the week’s biggest headlines in our Week in Review. We wrap up with retiring State Fair Board President John Yingling, who reflects on his years of service, the evolution of the Wisconsin State Fair, and the memories and accomplishments he’ll take with him into retirement.
