Actually I think scott is right, someone here told me they do open at 10:30, but people are already lined up. Unbelievable.

Yep, you are correct, my mom and dad had this idea when they first moved to Reno, but got shot down...

It is not unbelieveable...

There is just something about In-N-Out that sets it apart from the rest, and inspires almost cult like following akin to Rocky Horror fans, etc.

They do just a coiuple things, burgers, fries, and shakes and they do them well. No Tacos, no chicken strips, and No Bacon.... Everything is freash, and it is always good, period. I like there slogan/motto... "Quality you can taste."

In college at Riverside, they were the only game in town after midnight, and they were 20 minutes away at first. We would pile in a car and roll in at 12:30-45, and they would basically know our orders, and we would sit arount the 3 fiberglass outside tables and eat and BS...

I'm thinking 11:00am lunc some time next week might be doable...

There is one more Reno one, and a Carson one coming soon as I understand, and yes, I beleive KK stole their first site choice...

It's owned by the founder's wife. I thought it would be a good idea to start one in MI or a Taco Bell by campus, I never realized how high the franchise restrictions were.

Wait, you passed on *free* deli sammaches, pasta, potato salad, ceasar salad, sodas, fruit, and cobbler in the courtyard here at IGT to wait almost 90 minutes for a grease-ball burger?

owned.
