Are we talking about Verlin? (I think that's how he spelled his name. Pardon if incorrect.)

He'd answer the phone, "Pig STAND!! After you'd give him your order, he'd hang up the phone with a BANG!!

You know the routine.

no, old man veddder = my dad...he flipped burgers there as a teenagers, a looooong, loooong time ago. i was just joking about him yelling at people. but not about him being grumpy. passed away three years ago this summer. he moved out of VP as a young adult in the early 70s. went back often to visit family, which is how i got acquainted with the pig stand. hate to hear that it shut down. sad.
