Say Goodbye to Fry Street

[PlummMeanGreen]

I lived on West Hickory (929 W. Hickory, I believe), in that row of townhosues a couple blocks from campus when I was a student in the 80s.  That area was great.  Cool bars like the Library, the Green Derby (anybody remember that place?), and, of course, the [Flying] Tomato.  On Saturday mornings after visiting these establishments, you could walk over to Jim's Diner on Fry St. and have a great hangover-reducing greasy breakfast. 

I hope all this is just a rumor.  Even though I don't live in Denton or Texas anymore, when I go back I always go by that area an it brings back a lot of great memories.  So, for my own selfish sense of nostaligia, I'd like to keep it the way it.

Loved those breakfasts at Jim's Diner. I can't remember, but what business took over that location? Anyone from that era recall?

Hell, opponents like SMU, Baylor, Tulsa that come to Denton might say, "That looks like a nice place to go spend money."

Especially if the wife called and asked 'em to pick up some eggs & milk.
