I remember Joe Theismann's restaurant very well. It was my mother's favorite restaurant - no surprise, since Joe was her favorite player!
On the nights when Joe was 'in the house', he was the ultimate host - going from table to table, chatting, shaking hands, signing autographs!
Great food too!
Is it bad that I was actually a little honored by the fact that Slate referred to the Pirates as 'mediocre'?
I think we're STRIVING for mediocrity right now.
Yep, Joe Theismann's in Alexandria right by the Masonic Temple. I've only driven past it. I'm sure it sucks.
Kinda like a restaurant equivalent of the Buccos.
I've been to Theismann's restaurant in Alexandria, (one of my roomate's parents took us, i didn't have to pay).
As much as I hate Theismann, the food and service were actually pretty good. But if you are going to dinner in Alexandria there are at least 10 better places to go.
Gotta love Joe's sweater in that picture.
