Stefano '91 and Whitney Viglietti '92 own and Wisconsin the neighboring town of Kohler, operate four restaurants in Sheboygan. These restaurants - Trattoria Stefano, Il Ritrovo, The Duke of Devon, and Field to Fork - have become a meeting point for many golf fans during the six-day event.

"The Ryder Cup really built a city. I mean it's incredible. We can see it from where we live in Sheboygan on the lake. A few miles north you can see these big red tents and everything," said Stefano.

To avoid the epidemic of COVID-19 between the teams, the golfers were locked up at Kohler's American Club. Kohler's restaurant was also closed, so the Viglietti family saw a large number of fans at their Sheboygan restaurant. "But it's hard to say, it feels just as busy as, our previous activities like we've been cooking crazy. They must be having a good time, they are very involved. This is a different company, they can cheer," Stefano said. "Compared to normal things that are very quiet, this is a different golf event. It's fun. Lots of noisy happy people come in at night."

Even in a normal year when golfers are not locked in, Viglietti prefers to see fans and regulars. "They go to bed very early and they don't drink too much think about it, golfers don't eat much. Yes, you want to see them, but at the same time, I hope the big groups will buy $600 for wine, eating, partying, having fun, those people will always be here," Stefano said.

According to Stefano, the Ryder Cup will change location each time it is played, but there are other big events in the Whistler Strait. “Of course, judging by past events, those people want to come, is that overall these years the beauty of it.
