Yes, I know, I ride by them a few times a month. I was not suggesting that they had closed, but that it is indeed an institution. Bubba's Chicken is another.

There was a club named "Up Your Alley" over on Yale, I think. And, nearby there was a "dive" bar where SMU football players hung out.
Also, does anyone remember a restaurant with a big chicken on Greenville Avenue? The food was served cafeteria style.
And what about the Point Restaurants? Sort of the sports bars of their time?
Any memories you have would be great.

I mispent my entire Junior and senior years at Up your Alley 1975 to 1977. what do you want to know?
