Western Sizzler restaurant by Space Port


The Sizzler. Western Sizzlin' was beside the Wendy's at Florida and Mcgehee.

Does anybody remember the sisters that worked at the pretzel place, then moved to the corn dog place?

As a young boy/pre teenager, Champs Sports and their selection of sneakers and Starter jerseys was GOAT.

Bon Marche with the Piccadilly.


As a kid I thought it was so cool they had the belt in the wall that would carry the trays of dirty dishes back to the kitchen.
