How many of you are aware that we do indeed have accents? I know it's shocking, but we really don't talk exactly like people on TV.
It's ok though, I'm very proud of our over-annunciation of our "O's". There's nothing wrong with over-annunciation of vowels!
Sound off with your WI hometown here! |

Edit #1:
And I'm quite surprised to meet a NEW Transformers fan from Wisconsin. The entire herd of us belong to the Dairyland Transformer Fans and meet at Dairycon in Fond du Lac every Spring.
Edit #2:
Also, don't be a stranger, come on by the Wisconsin Sightings thread. 
Play Urban Dead and they could be behind you too...

Seeing as you seem to be about their age, it would be funny as hell if you knew Mark Roethke, John Statz, or Nick Adam....
I should add that I had no idea there was a TFcon in Fond du Lac every year! I'm in Oshkosh, so that's like a 20 minute drive for me. Should probably check that out. |

But yeah, you should definately join the DTF and come to Dairycon next year.

I lived in Spencer until I turned 20 and came down here to go to school at Herzing College in Madison.
Now I got a question for you, I have some family that live in Oshkosh. Does Jason Lefeber sound familiar at all?
On a personal note, the last time I was in Oshkosh was when I went to the FAA Airshow about 6 or 7 years ago. That place was nutz!

But I have officially added to the WI sightings thread! |

The majority of Wisconsinite Transformer Fans either live in the Fox Valley, Madison, or Milwaukee. So having others in the same area reporting sightings really cuts down on gas mileage while trying to hunt down figures.
