So, it turns out that opening a crappy used car lot in a former Pizza Hut may not be the best business plan. I am using the previous posts on this blog as my empirical evidence for this hypothesis.
Loyal reader, Harrisburg native, and commercial real estate agent Amanda (who is now batting .500, for those keeping track) sent this one in in a fit of nostalgia, dreaming about that night in 1993 when she came to this Pizza Hut after her graduation rehearsal (if you don't practice graduating, you might graduate wrong).
There are a lot of landmarks along the Lincoln Highway that are worth noting -- That coffee-pot-shaped building in Bedford. The original location of the Leaning Tower of Pisa before it was moved to Italy (the fact checker has off today). And, of course, not this place, because no one really cares about how you put Whoomp! (There It Is) on the jukebox and then got drunk on cheap vodka and barfed all over the parking lot on that fateful graduation rehearsal evening in 1993.
These beautiful structures, most likely now devoid of the table-top Pac Man machines, dot the American landscape. Some provide ethnic food, some, used cars, and a rare few are now municipal buildings. Whatever their current purpose, we can always be reminded of the mediocre pizza that was once served in these establishments. That, and those red plastic cups.
