RIP Fat Daddy's

Share
For the past 20 years, I took family and friends to a great family-style pool hall with the best wings and burgers that money could buy. We would go to Fat Daddy's whenever possible to have a few laughs, play a little pool, and have a hearty tuck-in with some great food and drink. But it has been a year since last time I had a chance to visit this favorite establishment of mine.

Yesterday was the first time I've driven by it in a couple months. But it wasn't there --- just some dust, a few bricks and demolition equipment. After little research on the Internet, I learned they closed the doors on this excellent eatery just before Christmas. Apparently, a recently hired manager had not been enforcing rules on decorum. As a result, thug wannabes and those who don't understand the pants-belt concept began to frequent our now-deceased restaurant. The overly loud music, the even louder abusive language, and behavior that threatened the more- frequent patrons cause business to fall sharply. And so another great place bites the dust.
