Three of the four owners of "3B's" relocated the bar to South Second Street in June 1995.

Three of the four original owners of 3B's relocated the bar to 2nd and Lapham in June 1995. The new location continued to use the name "3B's," but it was also called "B's" in 1996 ads. While advertisements returned to using "3B's" later in 1996, the bar was still listed as "B's" in various bar guides and event listings.

An October 1997 story in Wisconsin Light (vol 10-issue 21, pg 21) announced that B's would be closing in October 1997 after 6.5 years in business. That timeline includes its previous incarnation as "3B's" bar at the earlier address.

The bar reopened on November 14, 1997 as Woody's.
