Varsity

More about the book

The Varsity chronicles the evolution of a beloved fast food institution that began in 1928, founded by Frank Gordy to provide affordable meals to students. Known as the world's largest drive-in since the 1950s, it has maintained a consistent menu featuring hot dogs, hamburgers, and fried pies. The book highlights Gordy's innovative service methods, including the introduction of carhops, and celebrates the nostalgic experience of enjoying signature items like the heavy dog and F.O. shakes over the decades.
