Cool Oh Joy, Sonic came to town



http://weblogs.ctnow.com/entertainme...ited-abou.html

If you Live in the North East and I say anything from CT and up we have been waiting for YEARS for a Sonic. I actually got to have Sonic twice when in Florida and was very fond of it.

The funny issue is that I have not had a Fast Food Burger since 1995 which goes to say it has been a while. I think I may break this rule now.



It's in my town and where they have it is going to be crazy as traffic is already busy there. I from now on take a Alternate route going home just to avoid it, now with it opening (first in the state, 9 more planned) its going to be nuts.

I also just learned of a good Sports Bar in the State (3 locations) just announced a 4th in the same area which means I may never have to leave town..... I guess thats Wally World for you.

Congrats, just don't eat the food unless you're feeling frisky.

This difference is its very hard to go out of Biz in Wallingford. It actually may become a good car hangout for Friday/Saturday compared to the Turnpike.

We will see.

Gotta love the Trans Fat

They seriously built at least 7 within the past year with in a 30 minute radius of my house! I remember cruising up to the sonic in Epehtra a couple years when that was the only one around.

A guy that works for me is a Sonic freak. He drives from Central Ct to Kingston New York to get his Sonic fix. I have seen them throughout the south, but have never eaten at one yet.

If I go Fast Food, it tends to be Chicken and what I had a few years ago was killer. They had some good desert deals too!

I have tommorrow off, I may see if I can sneak in for a early lunch.

But there had been reports of people dealing with a 4 hr wait.....

Like said, people have been craving this and we get the Advertisements all the time from NY stations.

Same thing happened here. Once everyone eats there and realizes it's not that great, it will calm down.
