Number of Wis. taverns shrinking

Wisconsin's tavern industry is going through some changes, as more people choose to entertain at their homes, instead of going to a bar.

Jim Draeger of the Wisconsin Historical Society says attitudes are also changing about drinking and driving. He says that means tavern owners need to put forth an extra effort to get people to belly-up to the bar.

Even with the changing attitudes, and the number of bars declining, Draeger says bars will continue to play a significant role in Wisconsin life.
