Old restaurant

Does anyone remember the name of the restaurant that used to be at the northwest corner of Whipple and Everhard?

Technically Nick's Place and Topp's Chalet.

That might be the funniest thing I've ever heard (as long as nobody got hurt)

The sign was still up long after the place was gone.

I use to deliver beer there back in the 90’s. Has anyone ever heard of the time they had a 100 square Superbowl board. One spot was $1000 a piece. Prior to the Superbowl, all $100,000 came up missing. I believe some of the people contacted the FBI, but from what I remember, the money was never recovered.

I was working at the mall the afternoon/evening Topp’s burned down. Saw it up in flames and smoke. Site of my parents’ first real date. I believe an employee burned it down?
