Steaks, Shakes and Pancakes in the Past

Did anyone ever have a steak at JB's? If so, how was it?
What I remember was free baby food, JB's Big Boy Hamburgers, onion rings, strawberry, vanilla and chocolate
shakes, Cokes and strawberry pie. McDonald's Big Mac was supposed to have been a copy of the original Big
Boy burger. It wasn't so much a food place as a place to see and be seen after a Friday night game.
We had to drive down "the diagonal" to get there, mostly through a lot of empty land back then.
When they opened in Murray it wasn't quite the same.

  1. I remember it as being the first place I ever heard anyone order eggs cooked over-hard and smashed flat! What a terrible waste of a good, RUNNY egg. Yes Steve, it was you. Many great nights were spent there!

  2. I can't believe I'd waste my own hard-earned money to order eggs anyway.
