Former tire shop, bar, restaurant razed today

By noon today, one of Antigo’s most durable downtown buildings had been reduced to rubble.

Just after 6 a.m., a backhoe and other equipment from Duffek Sand & Gravel descended on the former Kackle Shack tavern in the 500 block of Superior Street. demolishing the decrepit structure to improve visibility, parking and access to the popular bbJack’s bar and restaurant located next door.

The building was purchased by members of the Stimac family, who operated bbJack’s, this spring, with an eye on demolition. It had been operated as the Kackle Shack until recently.
