I moseyed into Henry's off of Downer the other night for what I had heard was an amazing burger. I must say, I was not unimpressed after I had it "kicked-up" with extra spices and kick. So, officially, I recommend Henry's Bar and Grille.

But this is not the point of my story. My friends and I found ourselves watching Jeopardy during dinner. It was the typical Jeopardy experience, not knowing any answers, and laughing at the people on tv who did. I thoroughly enjoyed watching a game show at a bar/grill type place. After Jeopardy, Wheel of Fortune came on for about 10 minutes, and then was switched to the Bucks Game.

I am as big a Bucks fan as the next person, but I found myself longing for cheesy jokes and age-old theme songs.

Could this be the wave of the future? I mean, if you get enough people together at a bar, who like good beer and fun shows, it has the potential to be quite a hangout. Cultish, yes? Innovative, Yes? Wierd, a little? Cash cow, who knows?

So come on Milwaukee bar owners, forget the run-of-the-mill sports bar and open a game show bar. I think it's about time we get creative with our socializing. Just think of the drinking games that could ensue?

I know i'd stop in a few times per month.
