For 36 years, this was the location for the popular tv show Austin City Limits (or ACL for short).
In 2011, the location for this program changed venue to the nearby Moody Theater.
What can you say about this show? It is important, timely, and consistently well done. Thanks, PBS.
the fonz statue
from happy days posted in television by donkeyoti
Located on the river boardwalk area, outside of the Rock Bottom Brewery, is a bronze statue dedicated to the enigmatic character of Arthur Fonzarelli (aka Fonzie, aka the Fonz).
Henry Winkler, the actor who played Fonzie, evidently called the $85,000 donation by a Milwaukee tourism group, "unbelievable."
"Happy Days" was set in the 50's era Milwaukee area. It contributed the indispensable phrase, "Keep it Fonzie," into popular language.

There is a statue near the intersection of 7th street and Nicollet Mall. The pose is Mary Tyler Moore throwing her hat in the air.
The Mary Tyler Moore Show was set in Minneapolis, and co-starred Ed Asner as the gruff and lovable boss.
It was also one of the earliest shows to focus on an independent woman balancing her career and personal life.

Jesse bought a gun here in season 2. I ate at the dog house when I visited NM and then I got ill, but I'm not blaming the hot dogs.
