The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.

Cruisin' Nebraska-- Part 10-- NTN Buzztime (part 2)

We have been in Nebraska on three occasions. The last time, we were being chased by an early October winter storm across the state in 2006 so didn't stop to play NTN. We had picked up the snow just west of Denver as we were returning from our end-to-end Route 66 drive.

The first Nebraska trip was on our return from the 2004 Tulsa Route 66 Festival where we went on out to Tucumcari, New Mexico and we were taking US-54 back most of the way, but had gotten off in Wichita, Kansas.

The second time was spring break 2006, when we took the Lincoln Highway across Iowa and then went way out of our way to see the world's largest round barn in Red Cloud, Nebraska. (I don't suggest it.)

Of the 21 NTN sites we've been to, eleven are no long in business or have it.

Ones that have dropped it:

DJ's, Varsity Club, TGIF, In-Play, Crescent Moon, Old Dundee, Oscar's, Clancy's and Digz in Omaha.

Gateway Lanes in Elkhorn and the Penalty Box in Lincoln.

Always sad to see so many have dropped it, and that number would be worse had it not been for all the BW3s (Buffalo Wild Wings).
