image“Happy Days” locale Milwaukee will debut a life-sized, $85,000 statue of leather-clad Arthur “Fonzie” Fonzarelli this fall, the AP reports. Thumbs up cookies for all! Some gallerists were down on the idea, saying the bronze Fonz would perpetuate “low-brow stereotypes about Wisconsin.” Lighten up, people! Tune in for potential eye-rolling, however, if Brooklyn goes for a monument to a pregnant Chachi.
