MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- The wrestling legacy of South Milwaukee's own Reggie Lisowski, better known as "Da Crusher," is set to be celebrated during the upcoming annual Crusherfest.
Peggy Clark, president of Crusherfest, joined us on Thursday, June 1 to share details about the event honoring the late wrestler who once reigned supreme in the American Wrestling Association, being the man who is famous for claiming to have put South Milwaukee on the map.
The event is more than wrestling matches, offering a batch of events and entertainment to fill out the weekend tribute to "the man who made Milwaukee famous."
CBS 58's own 'Iron Mike' Curkov will even be taking part in The Bolo Brawl.
