The next day the devil stops in to check on them and sees them dressed in parkas, mittens, and bomber hats warming themselves around the fire. The devil asks them,"What are you doing? Isn't it hot enough for you?"
The two guys reply,"vell, ya know, we're from nordern Wisconsin, the land of snow and ice and cold. We're just happy for a chance to warm up a little bit, ya know." The devil decides that these two aren't miserable enough and turns up the heat.
The next morning he stops in again and there they are, still dressed in parkas, hats, and mittens. The devil asks them again,"It's awfully hot down here, can't you guys feel that?" Again the two guys reply,"Vell, like we told you yesterday, we're from nordern Wisconsin, the land of snow and ice and cold. We're just happy for a chance to warm up a little bit, ya know."
This gets the devil a little steamed up and he decides to fix the two guys. He cranks up the heat as high as it will go. The people are wailing and screaming everywhere. He stops by the room with the two guys from Wisconsin and finds them in light jackets and hats, grilling walleye and drinking beer. The devil is astonished,"everyone down here is in abject miseryn and you two seem to be enjoying yourselves." The two Wisconsinites reply,"Vell, ya know, we don't get too much warm weather up dere in Eagle River. We've just got to have a fish fry when the weather's this nice."
The devil is absolutely furious, he can hardly see straight. Finally he comes up with the answer. The two guys love the heat because they have been cold all their lives. The devil decides to turn off all the heat in hell. The next morning, the temperature is below zero, icicles are hanging everywhere, people are shivering so bad that they are unable to wail, moan, and gnash their teeth. The devil smiles and heads for the room with the two Wisconsinites. He gets there and finds them back in their parkas, bomber hats, and mittens. They are jumping up and down, cheering, yelling, and screaming like mad men. The devil is dumbfounded,"I don't understand. When I turn up the heat, you're happy. Now it's freezing cold and you're still happy.What is wrong with you two?" The Wisconsinites look at the devil in surprise,"Vell, don't ya know? If hell froze overdat must mean da Packers won da Super Bowl."
The two guys reply,"vell, ya know, we're from nordern Wisconsin, the land of snow and ice and cold. We're just happy for a chance to warm up a little bit, ya know." The devil decides that these two aren't miserable enough and turns up the heat.
