And Hamburger Heaven! Right across the street from the original Jack's (I'm thinking Jack was kind of bitter).
Gene Bartow, blessed be his name, introduced me to Hamburger Heaven. They stocked orange juice just for him.
Jack Caddell (sp?) sold his original chain of Jack's to a franchiser and had agreed to a "noncompete clause" for several years. When it expired, he created Hamburger Heaven on US 78 in Irondale. After Jack's death, his family sold that new brand chain to a franchiser. That makes two successful burger chains from one creative person.
