WHAT WAS FREDERICK KRUG'S CLAIM TO FAME?
-------
Kathie's done it again!

Frederick Krug was the first major brewer to set up a shop in Omaha, in
1859. Krug Park (which is now called Gallagher Park; nothing stays the
same for very long here) was named after him. Krug Park was also an
amusement park in the 20’s and early 30’s.
