Even run it like when Jaenike had it.
We used to go there quite often, but when he left, and it took 45 minutes for a stinking Italian beef, never went back.

Big Dipper NORTH....right next to DQ.....oh the fun we could have......sigh....our plate is full and pockets empty the way it is.....we love our place and our customers......It really would be fun though, especially for the cruisers. Back in the day, they had a number of bona fide drive ins to go cruise the lot and the town...... I would comment that the days of the drive-in are gone.....But SONIC does a real good business. They are building a few in Bloomington. I liked them in TX..especailly the "oceanwater" drink.

When Jaenike first was opened my family and I ate there often. But last two years we did not go there hardly at . We did not care for the service.

We had waited to go there, but when we finally did last summer...the food just SUCKED. So, thank you for explaining why it did, and now look, eh? Sad though regardless to see this place close and become vacant yet again. We will NEVER get Woody back, that's a given. Rest in Peace D!ck Woods................ the town misses you!!! M

Too bad Masked Man did not win the lotto or we could have had his BIG DIPPER NORTH. I'm glad I can still get my root beer fix at Bulldogs. It's great.

I would like to see Randy from the VooDoo Kings buy it or lease it. Could become a hangout like Dukes Drive In.

I had a lot of fun playing mini golf with my granddaughter. I hope someone reopens it. The food left a lot to be desired, though. A few things were ok. I did stop occasionally for supper when getting back in town.
