Nothing says Wisconsin better than the corner bar -- whether you are in a city or out in the country, you can bet that there will be a watering hole slinging cold Leinie's and deep frying some food.
Boxcar Wilky's in Fennimore, WI is one of these staple corner bars. Â As one would expect, the walls are covered with Packers, Brewers, Badgers and Nascar paraphernalia. Â "Penny" the bartender was doing a great job slinging drinks around the horseshoe shaped bar while cooking our meals. Â The 1/2 lb. cheeseburger and fries hit the spot, and the local townies provided some good banter. Â
Happy birthday to Lyle the milk truck driver. (Who was so hammered, he fell asleep on the bar -- I asked him when he had to be at work, in the morning -- he replied, "4:30 AM". Â Wow. Â Champion.)
