Hello!...My name is Ben Butler and I'm playing All the Best Country, weekdays from 2-7pm and Saturdays from Noon-6pm!

I was born in La Crosse, Wisconsin and spent my childhood growing up in Black River Falls so this truly is home for me.  After graduating from Black River Falls High School, I took some classes in La Crosse before ending up at UW-Eau Claire.

I began my radio career right here at the ripe age of 19.  Over the past 4 years, I have done about every shift there is, morning, noon and afternoon for WBCV and WYTE-FM in the Wausau-Stevens Point area.

I LOVE country music and have a pretty wide array of knowledge in the field.  Feel free to e-mail me at ben@cow97.com or give me a call in the studio from 2-7pm (888) 269-2699 or add me on Facebook…I’d love to chat!

Favorite place to hang out when not working…

Someplace with a few cold ones and a jukebox...(or a radio with COW97) ;)

Dirty Little Secret...

I’m straight-up addicted to game shows

Favorite Wisconsin Sports Team...

Love ‘em all but I really follow the Packers and Brewers!

What did you want to be as a kid?

My cousins and I used to “play radio” so I guess this is what I’m supposed to do!

What cartoon character or superhero would you like to be and why?

The Incredible Hulk…because…um…I dunno.  He just gets ticked and whoops some butt.

If they were to make a movie about you, who would play you and what would the title be?

Fred Savage (People tell me I looked like him when I was a kid)        “He Ain’t Right”

If you could meet anyone famous, dead or alive, who would it be and why?

I’ve never got to meet George Jones up-close…that would be awesome…as far as people who have left us, Cash, Waylon, Porter would all be great.

What is your weirdest quirk?

I’m not the tidiest person but with certain things, everything has to be in a certain order or done in a certain way.  I’m sure it’s a pain in the butt for people that encounter this.

What is the wallpaper on your cell phone?

A picture of the stage at a Clint Black concert I went to.

What are 3 things you can’t live with out?
