I was on my way to the game and stopped for a quick blizzard. 

I learned my lesson. 

The plot thickens.

Sorry for the closures to all affected. Thoughts and prayers.

For all that are complaining about long wait times, if possible, call ahead.

Many times over the years, when traveling back to Houston after visiting my wife’s parents, we phoned our order in to the Llano DQ when about 5-6 minutes away.

Arrive, make use of the facilities, the food is ready.

Llano DQ has always been good, as long as you beat the church crowd on Sunday.

That’s a good DQ on Burnet.

That's my "home" DQ.  I used to ride through the drive-thru on my bike.  They'd yell at me but still serve me.

But nothing felt quite as glorious as walking up to that counter with my silver free-sundae token in hand.  Extra hot fudge, please.

I believe that's a flagship Mayfield DQ, so the customer service is noticeably better. I sure hope they're better paid.

Yeah, as an Anderson High alum I was also a frequent  visitor to their Wally's location on Mesa.  Freshmen at Anderson were called "Wally Walkers" as a matter of fact.

The Mayfield DQ in Georgetown is great. Right next to Whataburger too.

It crushes that WB for quality.

DQ vs Whataburger - the epic battle for who can take longer to get you your food.

Went to Wallys for the first time in years a while back and it was mediocre now. Burnet Rd DQ smokes it on quality now.

I used to hit the one on Stassney quite a bit and it was great. And it used to be a better value. I got a the smaller chicken strip basket (not at that location) recently and it was like $12 + tax for not a ton of food. 

It looks like pricing varies by location so maybe it's that one in particular that is shafting people.

my bus driver in 4th/5th grade would take us there a couple times a year and get the whole bus a soft serve cone.

It also sponsored my little league team one year; we got a free blizzard after every game. That was a good season.

And that bus driver? You guessed it...Jerry Sandusky.

Got the three taco combo at my local DQ yesterday. An hour later, I thought I’d ate Brisket Texan’s chili! I was cleaned out for the final round of the Masters today.

Hook’em!!!

Besmirching my chili will not be tolerated.  I make a mighty fine pot of red, nothing especially gastrointestinally distressing about it.

I don't make Jade's chili, FFS....
