A wrong turn lands rock enthusiasts Bill and Ted at the Hodag Country Festival instead of the Cadott Rock Fest. They can’t stand country music, but the beer is cold and readily available, so they stick around. Sheriff Smith, head of Hodag Country Festival security, lets them in on the rumblings of recent Hodag sightings. What is a Hodag? The Hodag is a legendary creature form Paul Bunyan lore. It’s said to have the head of a frog, the grinning face of an elephant, thick short legs set off by huge claws and the back of a dinosaur. Its tail has spears on the end and it smells of buzzard and skunk.

The monster sightings have skyrocketed in the past three years according to Rynder Rhinelander, owner of Rhinelander beer. Interestingly enough, beer sales have also gone through the roof in the past three years. Coincidence? Don’t be so sure.

Sheriff Smith enlists the help of Fred, Daphne, Velma, Shaggy and Scooby Dude to help solve the mystery of the Hodag.

Is the Hodag real, or just an urban legend designed to attract tourists to the festival? Can Scooby Dude and the gang find the culprit? You’ll have to check out this all-original show to find out.

“The Hodag & Scooby Dude” features country hits of decades past and present!
