The Linebacker Lounge

Round the Bend Now and Then · 11 февраля 2024 г. · 37 мин

The Linebacker Lounge is a legendary Notre Dame & South Bend area establishment. It has stood on the corner of Edison Rd & St Rd 23 since 1962. While the surrounding area has changed over the years, The Backer has stood tall making sure all who visit leave happy & hopefully upright.   In this episode, I meet with Aaron Frucci, "retired" longtime Backer bartender. Bartenders, especially bartenders in packed college bars, see some things & Aaron is no exception! We record AT The Backer & we discuss everything from famous celebrities visiting to bachelorette parties battling, to generations of patrons, & Aaron even shares what Linebacker Sludge is.  Yuck! We also discuss the history of the Linebacker & how there were several instances in the 1970s where we were extremely close to losing the beloved bar.
