i mentioned this before from when i made my first trip to Green Bay but this photo looks exactly like the downtown from the city i grew up in...pueblo, colorado. this pic is from the early-mid sixties and i was 10-12 years old then. pueblo even has the same ethnic groups as Green Bay. it was a trip back in time when i went there. woolworths on the corner and everything. lol

Gus' Place, Pueblo:

i love pictures from the old days, and i love seeing how things have changed over time

View from Woolworth's in 1968:



That statue was moved to the Neville Museum, which was on the South side of the WBAY building at the time:



Anyone remember "Bowling For Dollars" from Larry Van's Bay Bowl??

[Iron Mike]

Of course, then the downtown was ripped up to make way for Port Plaza mall.







And, The Stein was torn down this year:

Yes. And I remember the museum was right next door to the WBAY building in this photo.

We used to drink at The Spot.

Good little alcoholic WI tavern.

I remember WBAY & Bowling for Dollars.

Remember The Col Caboose show?

He once split town with one of the secretaries and went a 5 day bender.

Wally's Spot is still there.

Any of you remember Woolworth's downtown?

They found the Col in a flea bag motel in a pile of bottles.

After a month or so, his show was back on the air.

The local joke was that he was now Sgt Caboose.
