An article on another part of the Southern college sports scene: [URL='http://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/21067022/college-football-saturday-sec-country-waffle-house']Waffle House[/URL]

And not just college. By the 1960s, Waffle Houses were in many Tennessee towns, and they would be filled after Friday night HS football games and Tuesday and Friday might HS basketball games. An uncle of mine who was an Air Force officer who retired to his wife's hometown after two 13 months tours flying the wounded off Vietnamese battlefields made the Waffle House a staple on high school game days. That's where he became a true local. The last public place he would go, lugging the oxygen tank as slowly died of emphysema, was to Waffle House, where the talk always got around to college and high school sports.

I don't see Waffle House making it in Boston, but blue-collar Syracuse is the perfect town to become the northern-most outpost
