No ketchup. Very good LOL.

That’s a good looking sandwich

Truth that a Chicago Dog is a helluva lot more like a sandwich than a hot dog anywhere else on earth!

 

[chippitydoodah]

As a matter of fact they should call their hot dogs Sandwiches and their pizzas Casseroles

Deep dish sucks, but I would absolutely agree. It's more a loaf of bread.

Locals prefer tavern style.

Was in Chicago recently and sought out deep dish. Lou Malnati's was suggested. It was kind of disappointing.

Non-Locals think deep dish pizza is a Chicago staple. Deep dish is a tourist trap. Tavern style is the true Chicago style pizza (thin crispy crust with the pizza cut into squares).

 

[TomC727]

And if someone absolutely has to try deep dish, I prefer Giordano's.

It was a gift when I was a kid. It has been sitting in storage for years. I busted it out for my daughter, who has been learning to play at school.

 

[TomC727]

Table was delivered today. At work, so pics to come tomorrow.

 

[TomC727]

So no pictures were taken. Wrestling with the table was like wrestling a dozen midgets. Frickin awful.

I regret going with the 108”. I should have gone with the 96”. It’s so huge, I can’t store it vertically on the wall.

Literally the only place I could find to store it was strangely enough, on the wall in my gym. I took it out of the box, brought it down to my basement, then realized that the box protects it the best.

And by the way, no one should ever order the $100 48x108 bag from American Gaming Supply. Total crap. The zippers literally ripped opening up the bag. I’m waiting on a response from my email requesting a refund.

Were they hot stripper midgets though?

 

[chippitydoodah]

Were they hot stripper midgets though?

Yeah yeah...the kind with a normal head & boobs but everything else is midget sized. Those kind?

Possibly.

I didn’t get a good look at all 12 of them because they were beating my ass. LOLLOL.

All your Saturdays are probably worse Saturdays.
