<p>Before the first restaurant in Sauk City, Wisconsin, was officially open for business, farmer Jim Olson saw an ad while out on a milk delivery and followed his craving to Culver&rsquo;s. Decades later in a corner booth at that very same Culver&rsquo;s, Jim&rsquo;s family and Craig got together to share a meal, talk about their love of ButterBurgers&reg; and reminisce about everything that&rsquo;s changed since 1984. Talk about a true reason to celebrate!</p>
