WIS Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Looks like Appleton had a Mars Restaurant also. We had one in De Pere, where I'm from.... That is definitely Appleton - that's the frontage road for College Avenue west of the Viaduct. I think it is a Burger King today. The American Legion where Americanos practiced is just a block or two west of here and on the other side of College. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
