Used to crack myself up.

Would order the beef tips--the cheapest thing on the menu-- and engorge myself on teh shrimp and salad bar.

Funny, I can remember really fat guys with mountains of shrimp shells on their plates, heading back to the bar for another helping. And of course, the unlimited beer, wine and sangria. Is it any wonder this chain went belly up?

Honorable mention: Cookies Steak Pub. Same basic premise, without the unlimited booze, as BS Charlie's. I took the future Mrs. Porgyman there, and to see Porky's on our first date.
