    Re: Uncommon Opinions

    I, too, have never been to Cracker Barrel, and was only vaguely aware of its existence prior to now.

      Cracker Barrel makes most of their money from travelers. I know any time I go on a long drive or vacation I look for one to stop and eat at. They are almost always close to tge interstate and are strategically placed. They are building one back home finally.

        Cracker Barrel taste nasty to me, but then again any theme type place to me taste nasty. Reminds me of soul food and Italian themed places. If you want the real thing, you have to go over to somebody's house that actually knows what it really is and not what a corporate company "thinks" what it should be.

        Now I want grits. Grits, with jelly in it and using bacon strips as a spoon to eat the grits......mmmmmmmm. Childhood memories.

          Would Bob Evans be considered a country restaurant?

            I'm pretty sure Bob Evans is a person. What a silly question. Would you be considered a library? Of course not.

              My wife and father in law love Cracker Barrel but I hate it. The worst is the closest one is an hour away in Hamilton and they DEMAND to go to it. Meh

                Also Grits with butter and cinnamon sugar is the best.

                  Stand-up comedy is my absolute favorite form of entertainment. I'd rather go to a stand-up than a concert any day of the week.

                    The only thing I've ever liked from Cracker Barrel is their Hashbrown Caserole, it's not bad at all, but other than that everything else is a pretty poor attempt at southern food. As for the grits topic, it doesn't get any better than shrimp and grits for me.

                      Re: Uncommon Opinions

                      I've never done it because of where I live (believe it or not, the improv scene in Wisconsin isn't very strong. Who knew?) but with all the options in front of me I'd probably take a really good improv show over any other live event I could attend that wasn't a sport involving one of my favorite teams.

                        This was actually really funny for some reason. I figured there would be tons of Colin Mochries and Ryan Stiles' in Wisconsin.

                          Give me a well done musical, to be honest.

                          Also, the Jabbawockeez show in Vegas was fantastic.

                            That's up there on my list too. I saw a ****ty community college production of Avenue Q last year and absolutely loved it, I can only imagine how much I'd like a really professionally done musical.

                            That I could actually do. Appleton has a nice performing arts center that a lot of awesome shows come through. I wanted to go see Catch Me If You Can last year but didn't get around to it in the end.

                              I only like the biscuits and gravy. Everything else taste and looks fake.

                                First musical I ever saw was at the PAC, and it was Phantom of the Opera. I was in 5th grade, I believe, and that kickstarted my love for them.

                                However, there are some that just don't interest me due to the premise, but that's like movies. There's something for everyone.

                                I've seen Phantom multiple times, The Lion King twice in Vegas (before they took it away. See it if you can somewhere. It's amazing, and I'm not even a fan of the movies), Rock of Ages and some of the other shows in Vegas that are fully set to music but can't really... be classified a musical, I guess. Jabbawockeez, some of the Cirque shows.

                                Oh, I also saw Wicked and Little Shop of Horrors at the PAC a long time ago. They were pretty good as well. I really like the PAC back home, definitely go if you see something that piques your curiosity.
