Sweet Thread, I grew up in Pineridge. My memories are similiar to some in here. Two that really brought me back was Bob's Hamburgers my memory is a little shady of these werent they similiar to Peters Drive Inn Burgers? Funky Punkers that was something I totally forgot about, it was fun cruising this store and the head shops with your friends and no parents around. The best thing about Food City was you could go in there and drink a crap load of pop because they had little taster cups for all their special pops. Anyone remember Freewheelin and the goalie shop across from the Saddledome? Bought my M.Alba Santa Cruz there and thought I was the coolest guy alive. What about Hannigan's Hamburgers in the mall that is now called Pacific Place on 36th Ave. What was the name of that Mall, they had a starboard jeans in it where everyone got their camoflauge pants? It was a real crap hole but not as bad as the Trans Canada Mall anchored by K-Mart and Super Value Foods. And cannot forget Fuddruckers where you could make the sloppiest burgers around. That was on Macleaod and Heritage - I think? I guess I should read all the posts before I start asking questions that were talked about earlier on.
Remember the slurpees at the Red Rooster would sort of foam up in the cup? The Blue one was pretty good. If you dont remember what I am talking about they used to serve these same slurpees at the Twin Arena's in the southeast home of those goon 7 - Clubs teams!
