We've been producing a lot of gear for them with their logo and the Wolf Pack logo. They're good guys! Can't wait for it to open.

What is the Wolf Den?

It used to be the twisted chimney and then Fritz's. It is across from Church Fine Arts and the Virginia ST Gym, on the West Side of Virginia. I believe that the folks who own The Nugget, Sig Rogich being one of them, are behind the Wolf Den.

Genuine Awful-Awfuls, literally across the street from the University.

Can you say cash cow?

Fantastic timing... the spring weather brings with it a change of clothing style. I can't wait to grab a burger and beer.

Ah yes! Now I know what you're talking about. Use to be owned by some rich guy who's daughter was going to school at the U. He bought it so she'd have a place to live right across the street from school. Still the same owner?

Same corner location, I think, but the original house that the dad bought for his daughter was torn down and a new (but old-looking) building was built in its place. The new owners, again the Reno Nugget owners I think, gutted the structure added onto the footprint with an extension out the South side and then put what looks like a new patio on top of the extension. I suspect it is going to be a cool place to go....plus Awful, Awfuls for lunch for yours truly...:D...I'll have to double my daily workout just to keep pace with the scale.....:o

An upcoming luncheon is in order... mid/late April.

The Twisted Chimney was doomed from Day 1. Too many reasons to list here.

Then came Fritz's. That was a decent place. My understanding is that the owner had to get out of it because of health reasons and needed the cash to fight the battle. Too bad, he was a younger guy.
