Damn, the two daughters look like clones of the Momma.

Texas size buffet



Were there ever any PIs in BR? If there were I'm pretty sure they were gone by the late '80s

As a little kid I'd hear mentions of Fatburger on Sanford and Son and just assume it was a joke name invented by the show's writers

It never occurred to me someone would actually name a real FF chain "Fatburger"

PI still exists? I thought they went out of business in the 80s -- last time I saw one

Google says there is one in LA (Franklinton) but several in MS. I had no idea.

Smitty’s in Shreveport was as close as the old PI for years, consistently good pie, he died a few years back, don’t know what it’s like now, if it’s even open

Always loved this poster.

I went to Trinity University in San Antonio my freshman year of college. Friend/classmate had that poster on his dorm wall; this was back when George Gervin was still playing ('82- 83).

It was so long ago, and I was so young, that I honestly don't remember if I ever even went to PI at all
