CHICAGO (CBS 58) -- In Chicago’s Lakeview neighborhood, an atypical sight of Bucks, Packers, and Wisconsin flags are flying.
Will’s Northwoods Inn is a Wisconsin-themed bar that opened in 1991.
“My dad walked through one day and he said ‘this reminds me of the bars in La Crosse’ so he said 'let’s just opened a Northwoods bar',” said Owner Will Bunge.
Bunge says the only team they don’t have flags for in Wisconsin is the Milwaukee Brewers.
“Mostly because we’re a half mile from Wrigley Field,” Bunge said.
On rivalry gameday, the owner says they still welcome Brewers fans.
“It’s a little bit of home in the middle of Chicago that has a diehard Bears fans and it’s a great rivalry and it’s peaceful and calm and funny,” Bunge said.
