Disturbing news out of Madison.
.No, not "Badgers lost another goddamn game by getting steamrolled in the second half" disturbing. But disturbing.

The UW is condemning Brother's in order to make way for a music performance hall.
.For a time, Brother's was a go-to spot for me in college. I contend that Brother's was a music performance hall, of sorts. They would play music, and after enough Swamp Waters I would perform by getting up on a booth and dancing the night away, white drunk boy style.
.
I will also always remember Brother's as the place where I showed a Madison cop my fake ID while inside the bar (it was actually Emmett's real ID, since he's an old bastard) - she believed it. Thanks Emmett.
.
I also remember going over to the ghetto Burger King across the street and ordering a Gilbert Burger every time, even when the Gilbert Burger was no longer available. Memories.
.
Too bad about Brother's, though I haven't been there in years. I'm sure they'll survive in their new location with their $2.1 million.
