They also carried those faux styrofoam straw hats all the employees had to wear. It seemed everyone I knew in high school ended up working there. They had a hand cranked siren and drum in one of the corners of the restaurant and when someone ordered a zoo, or had a birthday or anniversary they'd crank up and make an announcement, on a crowed day they'd never stop and it got pretty loud. With all the 1890s music I'm surprised they didn't put out a restaurant record like Shakey's Pizza Parlour did.
