Drinking a cornfield is probably one of those iconic teenage things kids in rural Wisconsin do all the time. Being not one to drink much and go out, I definitely did not have that experience. Now living across from a cornfield in the city, it has crossed my mind a time or two. However, now there are houses by that cornfield and it just seems weird as an adult trying to sneak into a cornfield.
Then the perfect opportunity presented itself. As we were navigating our way through the corn maze in Kohler, I turn to Andrea and told it would be a great day to drink in a cornfield. We threw around ideas of going to the gas station to having her dad bring us some wine. Since they sold wine and beer at Flora Fields, we decided we could totally drink in a cornfield.
Looking at our options of three beers, a rose wine, a sparkling wine, or a margarita in a can, we decided to go with wine. We were given the Rose... for $13 a glass.
Since we didn't want to walk the entire large corn maze, we headed to the small corn maze. To my delight, we found the hidden games. There was checkers and tic-tac-toe.
We were going to play pumpkin checkers but I decided that would take too long.
So we played pumpkin Tic-Tac-Toe. I beat Andrea.
For $13, the wine was awful. It was a dry Rose. We are not dry wine drinkers. I finished mine but Andrea tossed the rest of hers. We did keep the glasses.
We drank our wine in a cornfield while playing pumpkin games. Okay so maybe not quite the teenage experience most kids have but it was fun.
I am so glad I have friends to indulge in my crazy, random ideas. If day drinking in a cornfield is not on your fall bucket list, it should be. It is the adult version of drinking in a cornfield. Maybe next year, we will bring our own wine and sip it while we navigate the corn maze.
