Correction: The Shoneys used to be where the CVS is now. Highlands/Pulse used to be Legends, The Huntsman, and something else before it became Grider-Land

Oh, that's right... Was a couple failed Asian places before they finally gave up on it.

Dixie Wings is a bit farther down

I believe they had a failed store here iirc.

Plus, KK isn't doing too hot right now. They expanded way too much way too quickly a few years ago, and it hurt them financially

We're sitting at the border of the Columbus and Montgomery distribution zones, meaning they get no new out-of-store business, where a lot of their money comes from.

So if one was built here, it would either have to rely on mostly in-store sales or cut into the other locations' sales a good bit.

Yeah. My dad says that he was in school 20+ years ago, they had a KK that had an all-you-can-eat doughnut buffet after a certain time at night.

I love KK, but Square D over on East University by the Winn-Dixie is really good. It's just too far away from campus.

Gotcha.

I always thought we didn't have a KK so the Black Engineer Society could still have a legit fundraiser...dozen donuts for $5 on the concourse, my brother!

This was the account's second tweet.

RT @WhataburgerAU: You know when you were a kid and you found out Santa wasn't real? Yeah, it's kind of like that. #rushfarmhouse

Most likely that was an ATO fricking with people then if they put that hashtag.
