My wife and I stopped in this summer while we were at my aunt's cabin. The place is right next door to a grocery store, and we love dive bars so we figured we'd stop in for a drink and check it out.
We got in, and four people were in the bar, two bartending and two sitting on stools. All smoking. I don't care, that's just north woods charm I guess.
The drinks were super cheap, a bloody mary and a Coors for 5 bucks. Perfect.
Then the bartender started talking to us, asking where we were from. I told him MIlwaukee, and he replied "Sorry to hear that" then he asked where my aunt was from. We told him Appleton, he replied "That's a little better." Next question he asked us was "How do ya like it up here?" We told him we loved the area and the owner immediately said "Yeah no n___'s up here"
My wife tried to defuse the situation by saying "There's nobody really up here." At that moment another patron needed a drink giving us an opportunity to slam our drinks and get out the door.
When telling this story to my aunt, she said "Don't ever go in there again, you're lucky you got out alive."
