He sure gets around…

What's in the Jackhammer?

What's in the Jackhammer?

On first read I thought it was referring to Cessna. One can hope.

What's in the Jackhammer?

It's made with real bits of hammer.


But really it's peanut butter, banana and hot fudge

If you are a smart business owner, you might be asking yourself how much this kind of publicity would be worth to your business.

They put a large wad of fudge (or other toppings like caramel) through the center of the cup.

Does everyone recall how a small, irrational group of College Hill nincompoops protested the construction of the Andy's? Place does quite a business now, including the majority of CH residents who didn't have a problem with it.

They've moved on now. Their new ire are the awful restaurant owners who want to add parking surfaces to adjacent vacant lots they own.

I think there’s more to that story. I haven’t lived there for years, but the shiny design of the building which replaced an old taco tico building didn’t really fit into the feel of the neighborhood. I don’t think it was the business per se but rather the design of the building.

You can call me a nincompoop but Andy’s sticks out like a sore thumb in that neighborhood.

[SubGod22]

It was definitely mostly about aesthetics. Though there were some that weren't happy because I believe there's already an ice cream/dessert place in the area that some felt they needed to protect from a chain.

My therapist is located down in that area and I drive by it often enough that I do agree with AndShock that it sticks out like a sore thumb.

I do also understand people not wanting a parking lot constructed right next to them. I probably wouldn't be too thrilled about living next to one either. I'd never buy a house next to one and pretty sure I'd be upset if I did buy a house and then later on someone slapped a parking lot next to me.

I feel it might be relevant to point out that the new 1500 SF Andy's is located roughly 30-40 feet from the 30,000 SF building pictured below, in a neighborhood of 100-130 year-old bungalows, colonials, and tudors. I mean... just saying if the argument is about aesthetics of a new building conforming to the neighborhood. Also of context is that the Andy's replaced a former Taco Tico fast food building with Spanish exterior architecture.

Amusing how off topic threads become

Maybe they should have kept the taco tico design and called it Andre's.

Well, it did have a nudge from the AD.

I met Kevin last Thursday evening. Very impressed with his knowledge and energy. Great hire in my opinion. We are lucky to have him as our AD.

Curious what everyone sees when you go to open sores.con and search Wichita State?
