The worst ones are the tiny ones, believe it or not. "Size doesn't matter" unless it's really small. When it's small it's just like acupuncture over and over and over and over.

Wait what are we talking about?

47 feet long and 3 inches wide? I think Sarah Palin knows what this like.

The Berghoff has decent food, but their root beer is fantastic.

Size does matter. Any women who tells you otherwise thinks you have a little dick and wants to make you feel better. Women never tell the guy with the big dick size doesn't matter because she doesn't have to.

I predict this thread will degenerate into obscure Tom Snyder-esque references to meat-based products found at ghastly family-owned restaurants in large American cities.

My 46 foot, 2 3/4 inch wide brat is far superior to your 46 foot, 2 5/8 inch wide brat.

I love that drawing. They stopped selling it w/nipples on their t-shirts, but not before I got one!

There's a place down I-75 that sells a lot of meats, and their slogan is "You never sausage a place!" You better believed I sausaged it.

It didn't say three inches wide. It said forty-seven feet, three inches long.
 
2011-09-18 04:06:37 PM
It isn't even one brat. It's several tied together. Ripoff.

Anyone visiting Chicago, please don't bother with The Berghoff. She does not use the old recipes. Can you say "instant mashed potatoes"? And instead of the grumpy old waiters from Austria, who were all fired, you get perky college girls. It's just not the same.

not looking hard enough. the average length of the small intestine from sheep is 17 to 24 meters depending on the size of the animal.

minoridiot: The Berghoff has decent food
But the service SUCKS!. I have actually waked out twice before deciding not to go back. What I liked there was sold pre-packaged to them by Rose's and just heated up I was told by one of the people that used to work in the kitchen.

Their beer and Root Beer was brewed by Huber's in Wisconsin. Not sure of the current name since the brewery was bought out not too long ago.

It's now Minhas. Still have the same root beer but have added a bunch of other stuff to the lineup.

I was on-air there as a replacement many, many years ago for a little while after getting my 1st class license.

Nah, I was an overnight lackey. And got the pleasure of running the church show.

if that brat was 3 inches wide in the first pic , then sombody is using a fish measuring tape. and the same probably goes for the length too

there's a dearth of german restaurants in the city since the weinkeller and zum deutschen eck closed. gotta get out to the burbs for good austrian/bohemian food.

That does look like a bratwurst. Thought I heard 'em say the sale proceeds went to charity?

If it has nubs and seven different vibration patterns, I'll show some interest.

Agreed; there's no way that's 3 inches wide. At best, it has a diameter of 2 inches (using cook's thumb as a gauge), which would give it a circumference of just over 3 inches. Sounds like journalist and subby confused "wide" with "around"

Just a tourist trap. You can get GOOD food at Heaven on Seven, albeit not German, and a pile of other places in that vicinity for the overpriced half-ass German they do since scum took over. Used to look forward to going there when I visited my mom. Gave them a couple chances after the initial train wreck, still sucked. Schnitzel Platz wasn't bad last time I went there. Nothing downtown, though, that's German that I'd want to eat anymore.

LEARN TO READ!! Nowhere does the article make any mention of width, girth, diameter, or cross section. It's five hundred sixty-seven inches long. Forty-seven feet, three inches.
