I am the original paying customer, I just sent onlyanobody to pick them up at the original location!

It was only later that I came in and met you. Not sure why I was there, onlyanobody must have been busy.

Hey now, I had to be one of the first few paying customers! CMac, I don't think you were even posting here the first few times we ate there and the first two times I was the only one in the store. heh

I want to say one of those times was the day of one of the hurricanes that was aiming for Texas, but I can't remember which it was. I remember us talking about it. There wasn't even a menu yet! :P

Dean Travers gets one because he has a great handle from Seinfeld!

If he doesn't get a shirt, I will have to find these proceedings to be arbitrary and capricious.

Villager would back me on that!

Wow, love the shirts! If only I could put a number on how many people I've sung the praises of all that is Stover Boys to.

I would think that both of us should get one even though my other half only lurks. Saw your wife working hard today but never caught up with you. We'll get a sitter soon and come get my cake plate at Square One.

You know I'm damn proud to be a minion of yours, CMac.

I was NOT there early on and accordingly do not consider myself to be shirt-worthy. I heard about SB through this board and went there for the first time with ChuckTheAggieJeweler. Since then, I have enjoyed the food many times and sincerely admire Charles for putting it all out there like he does. I hope he becomes a restaurant tycoon.

PS: Good stuff from RTGA - as always

Hey, we could make a computer game!

Restaurant Tycoon

The main character could be a big guy with tats and a pirate headscarf that uses the web to "beat down" the enemies of his restaurant biz while he gradually builds his empire in the city featured in the game.

Give me ideas for the name of the city.

To get to the next "level" in the game, the main character (we'll call him MacCharles) must have a Guitar Hero-style duel with Bobby Flay, Guy Fieri, and strangely, Ina Garten. MacCharles takes down Ina in a donut throwdown challenge that makes Alton Brown cry tears of cream gravy.

We need to get some software developers on this right away!

Oh, and if you reach certain goals in the game, you get to have a shopping spree at some local hippie grocery store!

HELL YEAH!!! Those shirts kick ass!!

Charlie, I was behind you tonight driving through the castle. My headlights were reflecting off that bald ass head!

I was a lurker myself for awhile, Katt, and then I got into a 5 month argument over my sponsorship with a couple of t*rds (to remain un-named).

AggiePhil and jrhmc/O are absolutely original minions, and I thought I sent texts to a few folks, but I'll see about it.

The current shirts are free to whoever has earned them, and get you a free meal, weekly, if you wear the shirt in, or 25% off, whenever. I'm sure there will be a Minion card whipped up on the back of a napkin, or something..

Dean Travers, and several folks are 2nd generation, and I'm gonna re-print in a different color, and those are gonna cost $14 for ppl to purchase.

CMac

wow....I'm shirt worthy. Good thing, my "cheapest threesome in town" shirt is getting a little worn...didnt know how I was going to replace it.

I have to laugh ever time I remember the original store and when me and Natedog went there to eat and seeing his ticket string. I'm talking about the line he had running over the grill that held the order tickets. It was just hung from one side to the other and made a big "U" so when they hung the orders up there they would all slide to the middle. I told Natedog, look at that ticket string, every time the cook looked up he had the slide them apart to read them. I said I think they need one of them things that you just push the ticket up there and they stick so you can read them. Well, it didn't take him too long to replace that old string. Funny as hell though when looking back at it. Anyone else have some funny memories of the early days?

I remember going into the original store with my nephew, who was about two at the time. We waited for our order at the front because there were no seats left. After we got our food to go, I was getting my nephew into his carseat when I noticed the back of his shirt was covered with something, but couldn't figure out what it was. As I got into the drivers seat, I was facing directly into the store and noticed about half of the text on the chalkboard menu was missing.... I guess my nephew wore it home with him. Oops!

hello

CMac, I have to say I'm very impressed that you still remember/want to remember the people that visited you at the original location. The restaurant is still doing great, keep up the good work!

Jograki, Stover Boys Code Rule #1: We never forget beautiful women that come into a burger joint. When we first started, all of our marketing and specials were for women. One day we were packed at lunch, and there wasn't one male customer in the place. I made a bet that it would happen, and then I finally started gearing our ads towards men. Even now, if men get samples in the place today, I laugh at them, and try to discourage it!

You get a shirt. I really appreciate your support.
CMac

I think I should put a Minion shirt on the wall for gopitt, PBR and Laceemup24, also. I do actually respect their opinions, and have had pleasant email conversations, since, but facts are facts.

Without them and my FAVORITE competitor, who started 7 different socks to talk trash on my threads, I may not have ever gotten a thread over 1000 hits(or out of the gas station) Thanks you guys, again, you showed me!
CMac

C, I'll be there Tuesday lunch for my trophy shirt. thanks~

I will wear my Minion shirt when youn wear you Attention ***** shirt.....

I'm wearing it now, Mr. PBR. Hahaha!

I wrote GEICO a letter this week and told them to stop showing me the lizard/gecko ads, and also those ****ing cavemen! Damn attention *****s! They sent me a GEICO shirt back..

I know good and damn well that you've been in this month, so why don't you just admit it!
CMac

Had lunch at the SHIP today. The Blue Cheese burger exceeded Charlie's grease burger.

^^^^^^^^^ I love you people^^^^^^^

CMac,

How 'bout an honorary minion, my son Matt. I know he has eaten at least as many burgers as I have (in about 1/4) the sittings as me.

Just kidding about the honorary thing... He is much more interested in the food.

Thanks for having such a great place and great food.

I am still looking forward to eating at Square One!

I smile like I have no idea I'm a minion

Unofficial 12x12 challenge downed

My apologies, apparently CMac got banned for calling someone a name. He will never learn. I married him, and keep telling him to refrain from such non-sense, but it's probably not ever gonna happen!! Our family thanks ALL of you for your support. Our sons, Lute and Steed, beg to go to the restaurant all of the time, to clean tables, so at least they are learning good stuff from Charles, also.

He also told me to "let The Shipwreck Grill people know that he loves them, and that the person posting was the guy he called a name, and that he does not take it back".

I thought there was gonna be something stover boys related in. The batt today

CMac...

I am disappoint

But seriously, it was great catching up with you today, and thanks again for the cool shirt! And remember,

What counts as a minion? Don't forget who helped supply your ice cream early on.

Banned for that?
The guy is what he is.

I'm a semi-original, yet anonymous Minion.

Aces, you get a special shirt! Just not a Minion shirt..

Typically lurker shirts look like lurker post, unfortunately.
