Oscar Meyer hot dogs are made right here in Madison, smothered them with Hormel Chili. Johnsonville brats are union made, even if the owners are big Walker supporters. Lays chips and Doritos go well with either dogs or brats. Wash that down with some Leinenkugel’s Red, PBR or Miller Light and you have the makings of a great tailgate party. Enjoy the game and GO PACK!
