A staple in Milwaukee's downtown bar scene is changing hands.

A staple in Milwaukee's downtown bar scene is changing hands.

Walter Paget, who has owned 'Buck Bradley's' on Old World Third Street for the past 28 years, is selling the tavern.

Paget tells us he is selling the bar to focus his energy on battling cancer.

He says as the new ownership takes over, the longest bar east of the Mississippi will live on!
