“Denny’s was Sambos. They changed the name.”

Only a few locations were sold to Denny’s, most others eventually just closed.

Thanks, that's interesting.
I was a little kid maybe 8 or 9 and I do remember the murals, since I was born in 63 my recollection was that little black Sambo was an Indian. (From India).
I remember my mom telling me the story of the butter, I thought about it for a minute then,looking at my dad I said, “that is so dumb!”
My dad said,”you are very right!”. I was little puzzled that he agreed with me for once.
My Dad was a very, very serious man, I half expected a slap up side the head for ridiculing my moms story.
Funny that I remember that specifically.
Maybe that's why my handle is what it is.
(actually ‘right wing nut’ was probably taken)
