ST help requested: I'm looking for activities that I can put on a rock and roll bucket list.

Posted by crash davis 😺 (aka crash davis) Jul 15 '24, 06:56

For example, when I first moved to Seattle there was a Trader Vic's at the Westin Hotel. I always kept wanting to go there and have a pina colada as referenced in Werewolves of London by Warren Zevon. Unfortunately it closed/changed before I ever did. (also Lee Ho Fook's in London closed so I can't get a big bowl of beef chow mein)

Tastee Freez is down to only four locations https://www.tastee-freez.com/locations-all/

But Weinerschnitzel has opened up their first location in Idaho. Their website says they are famous for chili dogs. They also say they proudly serve Tastee Freez ice cream. So yesterday I went there and sucked down a chili dog outside the Tastee Freez ala Jack and Diane by John Mellencamp.

I'd like to come up with a list of more activities like that if anyone can think of one.
