Stomachs only growl when they're hungry or preparing to bite the hand that keeps tickling them. Tame the beast within with today’s Groupon: for $15, you get two general-admission tickets to the The Milwaukee Chili Bowl at the Potawatomi Bingo Casino's Expo Center on Sunday, January 29 (up to a $30 value at the door, a $24 value for advance purchase). The event starts at 11 a.m. and lasts until 4 p.m. Admission includes:
- Eight three-ounce chili samples per person
- Breadsticks from Peter Sciortino's Bakery (while supplies last)
Presented by MilwaukeeFood.com, Milwaukee Harley-Davidson, and the Horny Goat Brewing Company, The Milwaukee Chili Bowl cooks up a culinary carnival that presents more than 30 area restaurants vying to win the 2012 Golden Ladle Award with their more than 60 varieties of chili. Bellies will rumble like octuplets-expecting motorcycles as the aromas of vegetarian and meaty chilies waft through the Potawatomi Bingo Casino's new Expo Center. Admission grants attendees eight three-ounce samples from their choice of local competitors, with molten meals from the likes of Red Rock Saloon, Saz's State House, and Cafe Manna. Guests can dip complimentary bread sticks from Peter Sciortino's Bakery into traditional chili or take taste buds into the depths of specialty chilies such as sweet potato, vegan, and seafood. Though not included in this deal, guests can indulge in libations at a cash bar, and though smoking is not allowed in the Expo Center it is allowed in the casino. This event includes free parking. The Chili Bowl's spicy event also benefits Hunger Task Force, which aims to prevent hunger, malnutrition, and empty internal cookie jars.

The Groupon Guide to: Wishing Opportunities
Though everyone makes wishes all the time, such as for sandwiches or for their car to not veer into a misplaced piano, very few wishes actually come true if not made via a respectable and agreed upon wishing venue. What are some reliable day-to-day opportunities for wish making?
• Wishing upon a shooting star
• Wishing upon a penny tossed into the mall fountain, or if available, mall volcano
• Wishing any time a digital clock reads 11:11, 12:34, or W1:5H
• Blowing out birthday candles, or in the event of inextinguishable “trick” candles, trimming off the wicks with scissors
• Free wish negotiated via talking fish who apparently couldn’t grant his own wish of “not getting caught in a net”
• Cracking a wishbone in half (wish is granted to the person who felt the most power at the sound of a tiny bone breaking)
• Holding your breath for as long as it takes to learn how to play the game bridge
• Earning a wish by rubbing Frasier’s head
• Working hard and staying honest while dedicating yourself to improving the skills that will allow you to act on real-world opportunities you make for yourself, and also, buying a $600 rabbit’s foot
• Making a wish every time you see a dog, tree, or car, just in case
