Wisconsin Tourism decides to change its acronym

And, I may say, rightly so. See WTF? Wisconsin Tourism Federation changes name after internet jokes.

The body charged with attracting more visitors to the midwestern state will now be known as the Tourism Federation of Wisconsin (TFW), in an attempt to put a stop to the jokes.
