Bronze Fonz is back on Milwaukee's RiverWalk

The Bronze Fonz is back! The Bronze Fonz has been reinstalled in its place on the Milwaukee RiverWalk – and is ready to welcome visitors and selfies galore!

Officials said in a news release the Bronze Fonz has a new look allowing for easier upkeep and maintenance. Because this 200- to 300-pound statue attracts visitors, gets plenty of sunlight, and stands by the water year round, the Bronze Fonz will still need yearly touch-ups after it returns to the RiverWalk.
