I heard my first urban legend tonight about Jerry's that I've never heard before. ๐
A customer came in and told me she had heard that my dad, Jerry, had FOUR daughters... and named every single one of them Jerry, just with different spellings.
Jerry.Jerri.Jeri.Geri.
I've spent my entire life around this place and somehow that one never made it to me. ๐คฃ
For the record, Jerry had two daughters, Sonya and Barri, and neither one of them was named Jerry in any spelling imaginable.
The attached family photo has been created to honor this completely accurate and thoroughly researched piece of local history. ๐
Now you've got me curious...
What's your favorite story, rumor, tall tale, or urban legend you've ever heard about Jerry's over the years?
And if you'd like to meet any number of Jerry's in person, stop by and see us!
