I've seen a lot of people on the Gold Star side through the years. Maybe that has faded a bit since I left the area (2014)? I honestly miss the stuff so badly that my Wife ordered me a Skyline hoodie for Christmas. Too bad I can't eat the hoodie.

We used to deliver cans of the stuff (lots of cans) to my sister when she lived in St. Charles outside of Chicago.  They eat it almost once a week.  She moved to Tampa, and believe it or not, there is a Skyline not too far from where they live.  I guess if enough Ohioans snowbird or retire to the south, there is a market.  

I love the stuff.  Currently on a pretty strict "plan" to cut up like I was when I was ready for Master's Nationals (swim) in the beginning of 2020.  I was a ripped 190 lbs.  Enter COVID killing the meet, bourbon nightly (usually only one or two, at least during the week) and only lifting with no cardio (that is where I do my swimming....No lane space during COVID....had to "reserve" a lane for half an hour and that isn't how my schedule worked).  Down to 205 from a beefy 235 lbs.  I am not shaving until I hit 190.  One month to go looking like Santa Claus's recently divorced twin that opened a Tinder account.  

Needless to say, I am going to hit 189 lbs and then go eat Skyline:)
