Many years ago (I believe, when the Packers played a Super Bowl in Texas) there was one such video which did include Weyauwega. So it's not "every".
Supporter of the construction of several running gags, including I-366 with a speed limit of 85 mph (137 km/h) and the Hypotenuse.

Please note that I may mention "invalid" FM channels, i.e. ending in an even number or down to 87.5. These are valid in Europe.

Waabishkizi bagwanawizi. Pretty daring to call a native place name stupid when there are like 30 towns named Springfield across the country.

That's a perfectly cromulent town name.
