I can't remember if this was supposed to be in New York or Washington D.C. Michael Bay scrambled up the geography for this movie. In reality, the Milwaukee Art Museum is located on Lake Michigan. I'm going to say it was the setting for Patrick Dempsey's car dealership. I have an attention deficiency when things aren't exploding, so sorry if these details aren't quite accurate.

the fonz statue

from happy days posted in television by donkeyoti

Located on the river boardwalk area, outside of the Rock Bottom Brewery, is a bronze statue dedicated to the enigmatic character of Arthur Fonzarelli (aka Fonzie, aka the Fonz).

Henry Winkler, the actor who played Fonzie, evidently called the $85,000 donation by a Milwaukee tourism group, "unbelievable."

"Happy Days" was set in the 50's era Milwaukee area. It contributed the indispensable phrase, "Keep it Fonzie," into popular language.
