We certainly have been having a wonderful time. Wobbly Boots Roadhouse in Iowa just celebrated an awesome opening weekend. We've already said this, but thanks again to everyone who came out and celebrated with us!
We're going to keep the fun rolling this Thanksgiving week. We will be closed on Thursday, Thanksgiving Day so that our employees can spend time with their families, but we'll be open and ready for business Friday! To help get you in the Thanksgiving mood, the Wobbly Boots Iowa team has put together a list of hilarious, entertaining, and (somewhat useless) Thanksgiving Trivia. Enjoy!
