Title: Route 66 landmark gone Post by: safetyguy on May 21, 2008, 12:07:29 pm http://www.tulsaworld.com/news/article.aspx?articleID=20080521_12_STROU67651
The Rock Cafe in Stroud was destroyed by fire. I never got to go it, but after watching it featured on Guy's Diner's Drive-ins and Dive's last summer my wife and I talked about going. Unfortunately, we didn't act quick enough. Title: Route 66 landmark gone Post by: breitee on May 21, 2008, 03:10:35 pm We didn't either. We were planning to go in June. I hope they rebuild.

They just showed the replay of the Diners and Dive episode last week. Made me think I needed to get over there and check it out myself. Too late. :(
Title: Route 66 landmark gone Post by: AngieB on May 23, 2008, 06:17:41 pm I diverted from the Turnpike on my way home from OKC this evening to take a look at what's left of the cafe. Breaks ones heart.
