I ate there in 1969 when it was an A&W. Papa, Momma and Babyburger statues were on the roof then. I was with Mike O'Connell, now a well-known model manufacturer. Straight-faced, he ordered a "fetusburger". The waitress looked real confused, and certainly was speechless! Yeah, an off-color story but of course I couldn't resist. My Griego's favorite is their beef burrito smothered in green chile. No one in the Southwest makes a burrito that good!
