Friday Flashback #507

Last month, we flashed back to Chubby Lane’s. Readers commented rapturously about the fantastic burgers at his 2 locations: Compo Beach (where the volleyball courts are now), and Post Road East (current site of Willows Pediatrics).

There was another great burger spot in that 1960s and ’70s era too.

We’ve written several times about Big Top. Today it’s McDonald’s. For a while it was Roy Rogers.

But back in the day, it rivaled Chubby’s.

If Chubby’s was the Beatles, Big Top was the Rolling Stones. You know — scruffier, edgier.

This is not our first time honoring Big Top.

But we’ve got a great new photo to show:
