The village of about 1,100 people about 50 miles northwest of Milwaukee has celebrated the new year with a football game and festivities for more than 40 years.
The activities include a parade that takes a few laps through town while spectators toss rolls of toilet tissue at participants.
The parade will end at the Village Hall park football field for the kickoff at 12:30 p.m.
The Hustisford Fire Department has sponsored the annual event since 1987. The first Toilet Bowl organized by the Hustisford Jaycees was on Jan. 1, 1966.
Proceeds from food and raffle ticket sales provide scholarships for Hustisford High School graduates.
