Shakeys is still around, but it looks like all but 3 are in Southern California. 1 in Northern California and 2 in Washington.

When they went to buffets it was the best hangover cure in college. One of my roommates would order a menu item and then ask for a to go box. He then loaded it with buffet items and ate his meal. Took the rest home.

I remember some of that now. Saw some of the Our Gang shorts and some Laurel & Hardy. That didn't last too long, and was early in my going there. 73-74?

How about ShowBiz Pizza or OldsTime Pizza? The 2 companies merged to become Chucky Cheese.
Sambos and Pizza Inn
Are they ALL gone now? I thought there was still one in west Lincoln.
btw. i hated tastees.....
They did?!? That's just up the road from my folks.
Oh man, our ShowBiz here was awesome. The thing tanked after converting to ChuckECheese.

Also, Charlene E. Cheesington can be seen on the right before her transition to the Chuck E. Cheese we know today. Elliot Page often talks about how inspiring Chuck's journey was to a young Ellen.

We went for Wing Night when I was in college a lot. Steak Tips were the cheapest thing on the menu I think.
