Whoever buys it better not change a lot. Especially the fried potato salad. That place is a staple in Dekalb. Would be an absolute shame if they messed it up.

Please don't sell out to Darden or some other lame chain....
According to the listing, the owner is selling for medical reasons. I hope they are okay.

The owners son has leukemia, per the attached newspaper article. Hopefully, all goes well for the family.

Wow, I like Fatty's, too bad. That guy is a big time NIU asset.
I am always surprised noone hasn't dozed that roach motel next door and air dropped a BWW or better.

How is that motel still standing? It’s in a good location and is just sitting vacant for years. Surprised the city of Dekalb is allowing this to happen

HMM should buy it

A huge part of their business model was being pro NIU athletics 24/7, hope the new owner picks up where the seller left off. Love Fatty's attitude towards Huskie sports...

An even bigger part of their business model was fried potato salad
