On June 20, 1919, 100 years ago today, a root beer stand opened in Lodi, California that led to the creation of the A&W chain. Did you grow up going to an A&W?

We used to go to a Bob's Big Boy or it might have been A&W with our cars and motorcycles in Hawthorn CA. back in the 60s. I don't remember which it was. It will come to me eventually.

In Campbellton, New Brunswick. Campbellton was the next largest place to Dalhousie about a 20 minute drive. I would go with my mother for groceries.. A & W was in the mall.. Mom and i would have lunch once in a while. Good memories! Thianks for the question so relevant to my life.

And a side note.. I just finished playing "Lodi" by CCR with my son Ben on the guitar about half an hour ago.. lol
As a kid, I loved root beer floats.
At age 18, I stopped drinking soda pop and eating fast food.
