Bob's Big Boy was not that bad, especially the drive in one in Burbank near the NBC studios. Bob Hope and other stars used to drop in quite frequently. Ate there once with Johnny Carson a couple of booths away. The place is still there I believe, and J. Leno sometimes dropped in with one of his collector cars on Friday or Sat. night. It might be closed now because of the pandemic--anybody know? Haven't been there in over 20 years.

Bob Wyan the Founder/owner of Bob's Big Boy Inc. used to waltz into my father's Law Office in the 1950s and try to get him to do unethical illegal things. My father said ''NO'' and that was the last time we went to Bob's restaurant.
