Dog n Suds is a midwestern United States chain of root beer and hot dog drive-in style eateries with the once popular and now rare form of in-car "carhop" delivery service. The chain was created in Champaign, Illinois, by school teachers James Griggs and Don Hamacher. Licensing rights are now owned by TK&C's LLC of Lafayette, Indiana. They were very common throughout the 1950s and 1960s and at one time had about 850 restaurants. Griggs sold his interest in the business in the early 1970s. As of November 2011, seventeen locations remain open.
Famous quotes containing the word dog:
“That hour in the life of a man when first the help of humanity fails him, and he learns that in his obscurity and indigence humanity holds him a dog and no man: that hour is a hard one, but not the hardest. There is still another hour which follows, when he learns that in his infinite comparative minuteness and abjectness, the gods do likewise despise him, and own him not of their clan.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
