Sky Full of Bacon 09: Raccoon Stories from Michael Gebert on Vimeo.

Yeah, we've eaten raccoon. We also tend to forget that Chicago is a metropolis nestled in the middle of rural America. And that part of americana is vanishing quickly around here. Sky Full of Bacon's Mike Gebert recently traveled to Delafield, Wisconsin for that town's 82nd Annual Coon Feed. Held in the Milwaukee suburb's American Legion post, proceeds from the dinner support the post's youth sports programs.

In case you're wondering, tonight is taco night at the Post.
