      Chad Shepard ....be quiet....PLEASE!!!! We GET that you're upset...we GET that something happened! But ranting and raving and calling people names....what's that going to solve? The only result you're getting is people laughing at your posts and thinking you're a sore loser...is that what you want? I don't think you do. So take a deep breath and let it go, ok? Thanks.

    As a proud Wisconsin resident and a former student at UW-Madison, I couldn't agree more. In addition, Wisconsin is home to the greatest NFL stadium, Lambeau Field in Green Bay. Attending games at both venues is almost a religious experience.

    I've went to Madison graduated with a doctoring degree, went to a lot of games as a kid. The town has a great atmosphere, nicest and best fans you will ever find, best natural surroundings you got lakes, ponds, rivers and much more. Each stadium or place you go to have a different atmosphere but everyone there is nice and all respect Badgers sports. So if you visited Madison you'd never want to leave trust me. When I got my degree I wanted to stay in college and live in Madison.

But UW Madison is such a great place! And certainly better for all things sports (though Go Seahawks! --with your former UW QB Russell Wilson)

    Haters will be haters, but there's a reason why SI, Bleacherreport and USA Today named the, "Best College Football Town In America and, "Best College Sports Town in America" If you ever come to Camp Randall, the fans are really passionate good natured fans. The men's hockey team has been averaging the higest attendence in college hockey for a while and the men's basketball team, tickets are sold out on yearly basis. They also had men's and women's outdoor hockey games that avraged about 40,000 people. I wouldn't trade this for anything in the world.

    Born, raised (Wauwatosa...suburb of Milwaukee) and retired in Madison, Wisconsin ('17)
    My daughter received her undergraduate degree from UW-MADISON, my son is a senior at UW-EAU CLAIRE.
    When my wife and I were researching places to retire we visited the far northwest (Seattle) for our 20th anniversary in '13 and absolutely loved it!! Only three issues, "1", it really does rain there a lot, "2", at the time it was not apparent, but the economic/social upheaval drastically changed the ambience for the entire city and lastly, REALLY expensive cost of living.
    Our second choice was Boulder, Colorado, a "smaller" Madison in the Rockie mountains were my sister and her husband (born, raised and graduated CU) have lived for the last forty yrs (he recently retired from the Colorado Denver Symphony Orchestra after 34yrs and the Colorado Central City Opera Orchestra after 25yr.
    My sister was the harp faculty for the University of Colorado, Denver, first call union harpist and performed with the Colorado Symphony Orchestra-Denver. They are 70 and still ski the Rockies. We also loved IT!! It too is VERY expensive!!
    The remaining city was Madison, Wisconsin.
    It really IS a great college "town"!! Also on the expensive side, but doable.
    We live about a mile+ from the stadium!

And to those that disagree with Scott Van Pelt's or those coaches, or a lot of people's opinions, y'all either biased with your locality-which is respected in my book, but if not... ya just really don't have a clue. #WhenWeSayWisconsinWeveAlreadySaidItAll #StopHatin #YouWishYouUs #JustSayin #OnWiscon$in #HoneyBadgerScaredofBucky
