I always though it was named after one of my boyhood heroes, Popeye the Sailor Man. No matter, I only ever ate at one of the restaurants twice, both times when I was on the road and it was convenient. Both times it was teh suck.
Popeye Doyle was cool too. I saw the film at a theater while on a date as a teenager. The film was great. I don't remember who the girl was or if I got laid that night..... |
