Welcome back to This Week in Weird Wisconsin, a weekly mini episode highlighting the people, places, and events that happened during this week in Wisconsin history.

This week, we dig into the bizarre early history of Bucky Badger, including the live badger that kept escaping and a raccoon named Regdab that somehow became part of the mascot story. We'll also revisit a major 1962 civil rights protest in Madison, the 1912 American Grand Prix raced on public roads around Milwaukee, the flood that nearly erased downtown Black River Falls, and the Milwaukee Police Band's unlikely path from whistling officers to performing with John Philip Sousa.

And finally, we look back at the Peshtigo Fire of October 8, 1871, the deadliest wildfire in American history.

Explore this week's events:

Spiritualism in the Victorian Era at Black Point Estate
October 2 in Lake Geneva

Bayfield Apple Festival
