Kentucky, Wisconsin governors bet bourbon to root beer

FRANKFORT, KY - If Wisconsin manages to stop Kentucky's win streak Saturday in their NCAA men's Final Four basketball game, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker will win a basket of his own, filled with Kentucky bourbon from Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear.

Beshear and Walker are wagering on their home teams, and Walker bet a basket of Wisconsin cheese, sausage and root beer.

Beshear's office says the bourbons are from Lexington-area distillers and are provided by the Kentucky Distillers' Association.
