At the risk of getting myself into a rut: we've got frozen custard in Indy too... Ritters Frozen Custard stands are very heavy traffic areas April - November. 
I've seen them elsewhere, too. Lots of places have them.
But in Milwaukee, they're busy year round. I mean, "Hello, Milwaukeans, it's cold out & you're eating custard!" Of course, maybe people here like the cold. Heck, our furnace just went out, and we're not having it replaced until Monday. Overnight lows in the 20's just doesn't seem cold. Must be all that custard.
And there are a lot of custard stands. I've never seen this
custard stand density in other areas. It's just weird. There are a few ice cream or frozen yogurt places, but mostly custard.
And Milwaukee has had these custard stands for years, long before it became the "in thing" in some other places (like Virginia, where someone has opened up a "Milwaukee-like" custard stand--that's they're description).
When I'm in Cincinnati, I go to Graeters for their ice cream. But when friends visit Milwaukee, it's custard.
Now I'm wondering if any of the stands would do a "Flavor of the Day" for GenCon.....
