MADISON, Wis. — Students and landlords were busy Tuesday as they dealt with the chaos of moving day in downtown Madison.
Most downtown leases ended at noon on Tuesday, leaving thousands without a home until noon on Wednesday, when the new leases begin.
Some students on Tuesday were playing a waiting game for moving trucks.
“It’s more of a praying game. We really can’t have rain with mattresses and stuff out and electronics and stuff,” said Jon Oelke, a University of Wisconsin-Madison student.
