Yes, I miss football season.
Wendy's needs to do something.

Oh, one more thing, they need to get rid of the Baconator. It is terrible. I like a bacon cheeseburger as much as the next guy but it is just to overwhelming. Just adding a crap load of bacon doesn't make for a good bacon cheese burger(more like they were desperate to come up with something to drive sales).

I'm sorry Toledo doesn't have any Wendy's yet. Maybe next year.

They probably have a Waffle House or Hardees.
I am all for getting Hardees back.

I'm all for keeping them south of I80. Where they belong......*shivers*
What is wrong with Hardees? I haven't been to one in the last 4-5 years so maybe it is different now but I have always thought they were decent. I do remember them being a little white trashy when I was young but the food wasn't bad.

I've always preferred Wendy's burgers over Burger King or MCDonalds. I haven't been there in a while though. The only time I had a baconator I was 03-drunk so anything would've tasted good.

Remember when the campus and current Wendy's both caught on fire within a month of each other and arson was not suspected?

In your picture is founder Dave Thomas' daughter, the new CEO.

The spokesperson he's talking about is the red-head you see in commercials pitching their summer salad, value menu, etc., and she is cute with a hint of being an innocent firecracker.

^I guess Wendys is in some financial trouble if that's the best they could afford for their ad.

I-80 may as well be the Mason Dixen line.

Wouldn't quite go that far. Although Illinois should really be at least 3 different states.
