'Terrible Towel' is made in ... Wisconsin

Pittsburgh Steelers' trademark The "Terrible Towel  ," furiously waved each weekend at Heinz Field  by fans, comes from a company in Wisconsin  -- roughly 110 miles southwest of Green Bay.

That makes Super Bowl XLV a dream match-up for Gregg McArthur, president of McArthur Towel & Sports in Baraboo, Wisc.

He's a diehard fan of the Green Bay Packers. And, he's making lots of money selling Terrible Towels to the other side. Orders, he said, are coming in at a "feverish pace."

The company is also cranking out "Title Town USA" towels, in honor of the Packers. McArthur admits that the Steelers' version remains more popular, but, he says, make no mistake about the game.
