Location: Madison, WI | Hi guys,
I'm doing some research (for fun, sort of - to win a bet, actually) into the cultural differences between Minnesota and Wisconsin. If you are from either MN or WI, could you please take a moment to answer this 3 question quiz (please don't look at other people's answers until after you know how you are going to answer - so as not to influence your own answer) Thanks! Please also indicate which state you live in.
1. A Coca-Cola or a Pepsi is most accurately described as ___________
A. Soda
B. Pop
C. A soft drink
2. The item which dispenses free water in a public school when you press a button is known as a _____________
A. Bubbler
B. Drinking Fountain
3. When speaking about your parents, you refer to them as ___________
A. Dad and Mom
B. Mom and Dad
Thanks for participating, guys! I greatly appreciate the help. (I'm curious to see how this turns out)

Location: Sawyer County, WI | I've lived in too may places to be "from" any one of them, so I'll recuse myself from the vote.
Here's another question for the WI/MN crowd: How do you pronounce the word "bag" ?
1) So that it rhymes with "rag"
2) So that it rhymes with "plague" |
