Brunch in Utah

Back in 1990 we were stationed in Fort Hood Texas.  This was in Central Texas, Killeen area.  We had the opportunity to spend Christmas with Pam's family in Washington State,  I had to take the bus, a 3 day ordeal.  we were traveling thru Utah.  Early in the mourning we were in Price Utah.  As we were passing by the BJ's restaurant I started to chuckle.   The guy sitting next to me who I befriended during the trip asked me, "Whats so funny?"  My thoughts went back to 1988.  We were traveling to Cherry Hill for a family reunion of Pam's family.  There was Pam, myself with 3 kids, her sister Karen, husband Bob & 4 kids, her brother Ady with 3 kids in our own cars.  We saw BJ's with the Sign that said, "Sunday Brunch, all you can eat, kids under 12 are free."
    That was a perfect place to eat.  So, we stopped.  We went thru the line & wiped it out.  We went thru the line a 2nd time, wiped it out.  We went a 3rd time & wiped it out.  The best thing about it was that we only had 5 paying people, for the kids were all under 12!  They were happy to see us leave!
    I looked at my friend sitting next to me & replied, "Nothing, you had to be there!"  The sign in 1990 didn't have anything about a brunch on Sunday Mourning, kids under 12 eat for free.  Your in Utah, half the kids are under 12!!!!!
