Texsox Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 QUOTE (Brian @ Dec 17, 2008 -> 09:26 AM) I was thinking of this a few weeks ago. Loved their burgers. The one in Waukegan is now a Rally's. The ones down here became Rally's then vacant buildings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lostfan Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 The only one I know of in Chicago anymore is on 55th and the Dan Ryan. There used to be a lot of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Dec 17, 2008 -> 09:04 AM) Whatever happened to Checker's? I used to love their burgers. They still around? Down south a bit they are, they still have some in Florida. They are fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can second this... their cheddar fries are out of this world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot how good they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlaSoxxJim Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Now that I think about it, back in high school I think there was always a lunchroom table of fat lonely girls we used to call the Whopper Virgins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to school in southern ohio and had several Rally's burgers, my roomates and I then traveled down to Key West and they were surprised how much better Checkers is.

Correct, but it still stands that they are different in quality, I urge you to check it out yourself. The menu's are even different between locations, they share some items, but they still had specialized items last time I was there.

T R U Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 QUOTE (Texsox @ Dec 17, 2008 -> 07:42 AM) What-a-Burger >>> any other fast food burger Getting back to the ads, it does seem to be exploitative. I'm not outraged, but mildly uncomfortable. But they are, in a way, just actors playing a role. GO GET AN A-1 BURGER its the best thing ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
