[edit] Wal-Mart

I remember in the days before Dubuque had it's own Wal-Mart people would often drive to either Platteville or Maquoketa, Iowa if they wanted to shop at Wal-Mart. We'd go to Maquoketa as it was a bit closer for us. JesseG 21:32, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The M

Shouldn't something be included about the World's Largest M and how it is lit a couple of times a year? Porsche_gal 00:08, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

The what? Tomer^talk 05:36, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

Yeah! That'd be a great addition! Even though it is in the next county.  ;^) If memory serves, I think there's something about it at the University of Wisconsin-Platteville article; but it hurts me to try to read that thing. --BaronLarf 12:01, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

The UW-Platteville article has a detailed writing about the "M". It probably is best served there as it is part of the UWP tradition. It includes all the details - including the lighting, whitewashing, etc.--master_son^{Lets talk} 22:33, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
