    For some reason, it seems like they are mostly in depressed, downtrodden areas. Strange.

    IRRC, the rights to the company and its products were purchased by the group that held the franchises in the Tri-State (OH/WV/KY) - they're headquartered in Ironton. That might explain the concentration down there.

    It doesn't take too much to compete with Arby's - there's a small locally-owned roast beef house in Washington Court House in a terrible location that easily outperforms them.

    Always eat at the Rax in Joliet, IL when visiting family. That one still has the salad/taco bar.

    Just had RAX a couple weeks ago. Still the best fountain Root Beer anywhere.

    Can't believe it's better than A&W's draft root beer.

    Hey! I live in Bellefontaine.

    You should have stopped over and popped pills and drank with me.

    adog....you still can buddy! I'm like 3 minutes from that place. ;)

    We've only eaten there about 3 or 4 times. Prices are just about the same as Arby's....but food is not as good. Takes 10 minutes to get to the south side and Arby's.....we make the drive.
