Man that show is far better than anything we've seen in the Dallas area for along time. Nothing but ski boats, bass boats, pontoons and maybe a dozen cruisers.

I haven't been to the boat show in close to 10yrs now i think. Too many big cruisers,Pontoons, and no HP stuff.....the last one i was at in McCormick. I think they had one Cig, two/three formulas and one Black Thunder...I was sad
And i HATE going downtown!
If its going to be at Rosemont from now on, i may swing on by just out of curiosity next year since its almost around the corner from my house....

Has anyone been to the original Uno's? When I was a kid 60s living in Chicago Uno's was a big deal, lines like crazy outside the door no matter the weather. A few steps down to get in, dark and small inside, everyone carved their names into the walls, kind of a dump...super cool place. I'll wager a guess and say that it's not like that now? I think it was on Wabash?

Best PIZZA ever!!! , also a tradition to go there after the Boat show every year.
Still there and as good as you remember . We door dash it to the marina when we`re down there
Me and my friends started going there at 19 because Pat the Bartender used to serve us.
We`d pre game there , grab a pizza to bribe the bouncers at Excalibur to let us in.
So many memories.

You forgot one, GG's just south of NH in Milford, I actually think it's better and I've been to them all many times. But yes, New Haven pizza is legendary.

Lived my first 30 years in East Boston, MA. Been to a lot of pizza joints all around New England, and I’m Sicilian, so I’m an expert on pizza, lol. Anyhow, Santarpios is the best. It’s been on DDD. Going to visit the parents next week, that’s the first place I’ll eat.
