Shannon's Trivia Revolver: How many restaurants have operated here?

Shannon's Trivia Revolver: How many restaurants have operated here?

By Tom Peterson with photos and background from John Foley

The Dalles, Ore., June 21, 2024 — We got a revolver for you.

This restaurant we all know - but the location has changed.

Tell us Puzzlers, since Dairy Queens move to Cherry Heights Road, how many restaurants have occupied this space at the corner of Fourth and Union Streets in The Dalles? We’re looking for a number.

And for all our freaky foodies out there - bonus points if you can name each restaurant.

And for our Foley aficionados and triple clutch bragging rights, answer on Spooky’s wall, who was the clown that famously stood outside Dairy Queen in the 1950s?

And no, the police were not called. This was Pennywise prior.

Email your answers to tom@cccnews.com and all responders with the right answer will be entered into a raffle for a $25 gift certificate to Shannon’s Ice Cream. Answers must be submitted by Sunday, June 23 at 10:23 p.m.

Shannon’s awaits you, Puzzler. Shannon’s Ice Cream 318 E. Fourth Street, scooping the dream daily from noon to 9 p.m. It’s across the street from the Civic Auditorium. Look for the boneshaker out front.
