The weird thing is (well, not "THE" weird thing...), they use the same Germanic font Mader's uses and everything.

 

I know—I love it. It's very clever how the "W" in "Wilco" mirrors the barely showing tip of the "M" in "Mader's."

Now everyone will want to come to Milwaukee, and not to get their photo taken with the Fonz!
