This is the oldest gay bar in the Midwest

Opened in 1968, “This Is It” has the honor of being the longest continually operating gay bar in the Midwest. Founder June Brehm wanted a clean, welcoming, and affordable place where she and her queer friends could feel at home.
55 years later, the vision is continued by owners George Schneider and Trixie Mattel. At one time, Milwaukee had many gay bars, far fewer now, but “This Is It” has managed to thrive.

Not true. The 19 Bar in Minneapolis is older (1952).
