Milwaukee is our oyster this weekend. |

At least once a week, someone asks me where they should take their out-of-town guests when they visit Milwaukee. I'm flattered to be asked that question.
But now it's my turn to ask.
Two of my old friends from college, Paul and Brian, are visiting this weekend for a final hurrah before Baby Tarnoff arrives in September. Thing is, they've each been here a handful of times over the years. That means we've already covered the brewery tours, the Safe House, the art museum, the Brewers game ... and all the obvious places us Milwaukeeans take first-time visitors.
Additionally, these guys aren't looking specifically for culture in their short stay here. We just want to have a good time, relive old stories and hang out this weekend. I think I have the nightlife covered -- but what do we do during the day?
Sure, we could go to State Fair or Arab World Fest, but honestly, I'd like to try something else.
I have a few ideas up my sleeve, but I'd rather hear what you think. If you had three days to entertain old friends, where would you take them? Please let me know using the Talkback feature below.
