1. You'll Always Have Someone To Cheer On Your Home Teams With
The Brewers, the Packers, the Bucks and the Badgers – these are the teams that unite everyone in Milwaukee. What’s better than cheering on your favorite team…together?
2. Everyone Has That Uniquely Loveable Accent
Ah, the thick, whimsical nasal intonations of the “M’waukee” local. Perhaps you met at the “bubbler.” Maybe he offered to carry your “baig.” She may have sat “acrosst” the aisle and your eyes kept meeting. However you describe it, people in M’waukee speak the language of love.
3. They'll Help You Discover Your Inner Foodie
Milwaukee is a foodie town, which means great food, all day, every day. You don’t need to wait for a dinner date – try brunch! Or how about changing up the whole “meet for coffee” thing and having Bloody Marys instead? Bonus: Some places serve them with sliders, chicken drumsticks and more.
4. Milwaukeeans Are Tough...
Winters are cold, long, snowy and icy. Everything needs to be shoveled all the time, windshields must be scraped more than once a day and cars get stuck. The men and women of Milwaukee are tough, which comes in handy. And what’s more romantic than watching the one you love jump start your car in a blizzard?
5. ...But They Still Love To Cuddle
On the other hand, all that cold weather is perfect for staying in and cuddling.
