Cathy and I found out about the Badger Cafe and Rumrunner bar in Las Vegas. It is a bar for people who moved here from Wisconsin. The bar has some pictures of Packer games and Brett Favre's jersey. The Badger Cafe has a Wisconsin Badger pennant in it. The food was pretty good and I never knew you could fry a bratwurst.
At the bar, their draft beer was a couple of Bud beers and 1 Miller beer, not exactly an endorsement of the brews of Wisconsin.
With the football season around the corner, I look forward to going this Packer bar and be with Packer fans.
The Las Vegas Badger is about politics, humor, sports, reality shows in Las Vegas, especially Pawn Stars and anything else interesting. While I live in Las Vegas, my heart is still in Wisconsin. Thanks for visiting the blog and feel free to browse the web site.
Do they know how to make a decent brandy old fashioned?
ReplyDeleteNot sure, I am a beer drinker. Hopefully, they do. I guess I will have to research on this subject, though.
ReplyDeleteWas on vacation for the weekend from Milwaukee, and went there this past weekend for the Packers/Bucs game. It was neat to be with about 200 other fans. The 1/2# burger for $3.25 (and add $1.05 for bacon and an ortega chile) was out-of-this world. Met a handful of former-Wisconsinites who were most friendly. One guy, Butch, gave me his bratwurst (free with his yearly membership). Other than the embarassing Packers collapse, this is one of those unexpectedly memorable Vegas experiences, and I plan on going back again if I am in Vegas on a Packers Sunday.
ReplyDeleteNo cheese curds on your menu??? : ( That's one of the things I miss most of WI.
ReplyDeleteYes, you are right. Cheese curds. We had a cheese factory a few miles from us, in Rudolph, WI. They were great.
ReplyDeleteHey, What about those Badgers? From Fond du Lac. Well actually from small town near FDL Mount Calvary. We have bars, a seminary, meat market, post office and a farm implement dealership. My daughter graduated from Madison. Rose Bowl-Let's hope. Smart that you moved to a warmer state. Furnace currently running. Yes many great cheese makers in Wisconsin. Baker Cheese has the best smoked string cheese. Wonder if they have a web site for those who left us Wisconsin people. Hubby shot huge buck this weekend. Some teen girl
ReplyDeleteup north shot 3 deer in one hour. Deer hunting in that state?
If you are going to a Packer bar to watch the Super Bowl, you should take a copy of this song along "The Glory Has Returned - 2011". This song really Rocks. It was written by Wisconsite singer/recording artist, KC Williams. You can download it for only 99 cents at www.kcwilliams.com. Go Pack, Go!
