Kenna Bra’nnigans was the set for Shannanigans in the movie ‘Waiting’
The owners were paid a handsome paycheck and decided to walk away from the restaurant afterwards.

I made so much cash waiting tables there in college, $300 and even $400 weekend nights were common. For a college kid, that was baller money.
St. Patty’s party was ridiculous.
What years?
I waited tables there for 3 months but my service career was cut short due to me wanting to party for st Patrick’s day instead of work so I quit the night before

The St. Patty's party was a good time.

the best times to go out. That era will never be topped. They never checked ID's at the Lafayette location. We would drink there right out of high school.

Walmart next to the one in Irving TX would let them spill over into their big lot it was so crowded on St. Patty’s.
Good memories.

Yes I do recall that happening, but don't remember the details though.

can't believe no one posted the photo yet
and of course
anyone remember the Barney Blast mugs that changed to green when they filled it w/ draft ? Even though the Busch was hot it turned the cup green. I'm sure I still have several of those somewhere at my parents' home

In the early 80's, it was the first place I'd ever had a chimichanga. It was a life changing experience.

Wasn’t the guy walking to the daiquiri place across Ambassador? That spot was popular for awhile.

The Monte Cristo was the bomb. Basically a club sandwich dipped in batter and deep fried, then sprinkled with powdered sugar. A artery clogger for sure but damn they were tasty as hell.

Yeah, I would routinely drink there when I was 17 years old. Actually, that wasn't really uncommon in Lafayette in the '80's.

That was before my time. 98
