When I was attending college in Sacramento, I often went for lunch to the original Shakey's on J Street. (Yes, Sacramento is where Shakey's got started.) Now that glorious old brick building stands vacant--I tell you, it's enough to make a grown man cry.

@zerozander Yep. And still home to one of the better cheap-but-satisfying lunches you'll run across anywhere.

Thanks for posting this. Shakeys had good pizza! It was the closest 1970's kids had to Chuckee Cheese. It was greatness. Remember Friar Tucks arcade across the street?

Aww man!!! Who could forget Friar tucks, man!?!? I teared up a little when they closed it a few years ago. No places for people who appreciated the coin operated games anymore. A damn shame.
