Gail's Bar is the earliest known gay bar in Green Bay. The bar was run by Gail Meyer Rachals Meunier (1934-2017,) second wife of former Mayor Otto Rachals (1897-1984,) and opened during Rachal's first of two terms. The couple divorced in 1971.
When Gail passed away in 2017, her obituary made no mention of Gail's Bar.
