Each year half a million visitors experience the museum's interactive exhibitions, live planetarium shows, hands-on educational programs, and world-class collections."

Find it layered between a cracker-thin crust and generous handfuls of Wisconsin cheese, where every slice you grab can pull apart for what feels like miles. Visit on game day, and order a signature pie or make your own creation, since nearly 20 kinds of toppings await."
