Mike Bondar, longtime bartender and fourth-generation caretaker of Wolski's Tavern, has died surrounded by family and friends.
Bondar created the iconic "I Closed Wolski's" sticker in the 1970s, a joke that became a global symbol of Milwaukee's bar culture.
The Bondar family says Wolski's will remain open, and Mike's spirit will continue to shape the tavern's future

I always assumed Wolski's was a late night 4am bar because of the sticker. When I finally went and found out it closed at 2am like every other bar I was a bit disappointed. Great bar though!

Was he taking Tylenol?
