The 2020 Democratic National Convention cast a spotlight on Milwaukee, although not nearly as bright as city leaders, businesses and image makers had hoped. It did however, pinpoint some of the reasons Milwaukee is known nationwide, including its ties to popular culture and classic TV shows like Happy Days.
The Bronze Fonz on Milwaukee’s Riverwalk has long been a fun and quirky feature of the city’s downtown. And all jokes aside, the statue does still have meaning for the people who live nearby.
On CBS 58 Sunday Morning, Rose Schmidt shows us how traces of this iconic American sitcom can still be found throughout the Good Land.
