[QUOTE="HFS, post: 3621658, member: 8862"] The creators of animated TV show South Park have announced plans to buy the last remaining Casa Bonita restaurant, located in Colorado (it closed last year due to Covid). I did not know that the first Casa Bonita back in the 60s was in Oklahoma City. [B]'South Park' creators say they're buying Casa Bonita. The original restaurant was in OKC.[/B] South Park creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker say they are buying Casa Bonita, the real-life Mexican restaurant the animated show featured. The restaurant was at one point a small chain, but eventually became just a single venue in the Denver suburb of Lakewood... The Colorado location originally opened in 1973, five years after the first location opened in Oklahoma City. In the late 1960s, Mexican food was a novelty in Oklahoma City, and the concept drove customers who had never tried it before... When it opened in 1968, the restaurant special cost $1.47 and wait staff were paid $1.25/hour. No margaritas or Mexican beer was on the menu at Casa Bonita as owner Bill Waugh was adamant about not serving alcohol. Slumping sales forced the location to close in 1993, four years before South Park debuted. It was previously located at 3601 NW 39 and bulldozed in 2015.
