My favorite magician is Mickey in Fantasia.
I ate at a Steak n Shake a couple of weeks ago and was amused to see a poster of him (and a lineup of employees) just inside the entrance. You don't see that at other chains -- OK maybe Dave the Wendy's guy, but that was when he was also in their TV ads.
Well he wasn't a magician in the latest movie, but up in Fort Wayne he was featured on Happy the Hobo when I was a kid and I LOVED THE SHOW!
Shake Shack>Steak n' Shake
I really enjoyed the Hollywood Bar and Film works, they had good food and decent prices I understand that parking was one of the reasons for its closing. If other major events were going downtown parking was expensive if not impossible. Hope the new cinema bar will have parking.
