Drove by "The Game Show Grill" yesterday in Toledo, OH.  Found out it's brand new.  Anybody up for a field trip?

And the award for least understandable quote goes to:
Quote
The video game industry changed dramatically when people began to be able play games at home and on their computers. There’s certain things — it’s like a movie — there are certain films you just have to go to the theater and see it on the big screen, and “Deal or No Deal” is one of those games.
Huh?  This reminds me of the topical-comic character played by Fred Armisen on SNL who just swerves from phrase to phrase without ever bothering to link them into a point.

I'm baffled. But more because I don't watch to watch DoND on my iPod, much less a big screen.

Did anyone go to their actual site and get a gander at the wacky morning DJ's they've found to be hosts?

Definitely try the Plinko Chips & Cheese as an appetizer.  It's a great lead-in for the Chicken Fingers Greco.

I looked at their website and saw screenshots from an old Wheel of Fortune.  I also did not see a menu.  It's a seven letter word...
