Game on: Wisconsin town to legalize snowball fights after 50 year ban
Wausau has voted to amend a 1962 ordinance that forbids the launching of projectiles – including snowballs – on city property
On Monday afternoon, last minute shoppers shuffled the sidewalks around Wausau’s city center as the mercury topped 34F (1C) – a veritable heat wave for this time of year and, coincidentally, the perfect temperature for packing snowballs with volume and heft.
And inside the nearby city hall, a conversation has also been heating up – one that could shape the future of snowball fights in this central Wisconsin town.
