Just a little sports fact that I threw in there for you.

Bonus sports fact for Rob.

Another fact.

Do you want to hear it?

Yeah, I would love to.

So, I was told while I was at...

my bougie supper club um an origin story of why they tend to put um brandy in their old fashions instead of bourbon so apparently when europeans were immigrating over to the united states the wine would go bad these ships took a long time sometimes air got in there disaster they drink the wine disgusting they vomited all up awful

So what they'd do is they would spike the wine with brandy to make it last longer.

And therefore you have brandy wine.

And so somehow that whole put brandy in things stayed in Wisconsin.

And now they tend to put brandy into their old fashioned instead of bourbon.

Also, they tend to have a sweeter palate here in Wisconsin, he said.

And then it got kind of weird, a real trip.

If you order a sconce and old fashioned, generally they're going to ask you if you want it sweet or sour.

And that simply means, do you want it with squirt or seven up?

I don't know what Squirt is.

I mean, it's like club soda instead.

Okay.

Oh, I see.

So it's like club soda or you put 7-Up in if you want it sweet.
