14. That bar is on West Allis street in Milwaukee...

My brother used to live there in our more rambunctious days.....there were a lot of bars on that street. The locals there would call it the "West Allis Death March" if you attempted to drink your way from one end of the street to the other in one night. Tried it one night, came close to 2 in the morning and we were close to making it. I thought close enough to call it good....then my brother told me in Wisconsin the bars close at 4 am not 2 like any other civilized state. Thought I was pacing ok until that point....if a hangover could be epic, that next day certainly qualified.

The phrase "West Allis Death March" takes on a whole new more sinister meaning now compared to then.
