I'm originally from De Pere. (Therefore, I am neither a loper or a uper.) As the old saying goes the town got its name when an Indian fell in the Fox River and replied "Deep Here". 'badachang'

Yes WI is Wisconsin, but that is not the state the term comes from. It's one of the states in this chapter.
