Stuckey's T-Shirt Found--It's a real place!

edited August 2008 in Sam & Max
I was traveling in Indiana, and I saw a sign advertising Stuckey's, so I looked it up when I got back home. It's a real place!

Stuckey's


They have an online store!

    Yes, Stuckey's is a pretty large chain. Snuckey's, which is probably the name you're thinking of from Hit the Road, isn't real but is based on Stuckey's.

    In the comics, Purcell uses the real name.

    Fair enough, but historically most people who pop up posting about Stuckeys are thinking about the reference from HTR :)

    I had no idea it was real until a week ago. The more you know!

    If I ever went to one I'd:
    -Ask for the keys to the bathroom (and never return them)
    -Bring a really hard to open jar and get the employee to try and open it
    -Buy some pecan flavoured candy!

    Next time your kid wants you to stop at Stuckey's, tell them the story of Auntie Alice.

    hmmm, let's see if they ship these pecans overseas...gotta find out if i'm allergic.

    edit: ahhh...us only.

    I'm totally buying a shirt and pecans from the online store. Telltale should strike a deal with them to put their shirts and pecan candies in the store. It'll put them back in business and from the looks of it they sorely need it, lol.

    That mini game is awesome :D Though if you asked that in real life I think they would get the wrong idea :P

    Paris Hiltons proof of that!
    She's been in porn,jail and a drunken stupor! she's a triple threat!
    I hear that car she washed in the Carls Jr's commercial is suing for sexual assualt!....This is a valuable lesson for all you ladys out there!,it doesnt take talent (or boobs) to be in the limelight today.....just a big 'ol bucket of soapy water and paper thin self respect!

    Crimes against humanity might look good on your resume when applying for that big acting role in whatever sex and violence riddled mob flick they make next,you can proudly point to your prison record and boast "I'm a method actor and researched the role,those two dead men the cops found in my trunk with a garden weasel imbedded in their skulls are proof of how serious an actor I am!"
    Well after a shamelessly arrogant display of mental illness like that they'll be to nervous to turn you down for the role,and the director will give you a wide berth!
    Why,you'll be a star in no time,and then you can commit another much more heinous crime and get off scott free because youre famous!
    Isnt that right O.J...Phil Spector...Robert Blake!

    Ok,So Am I the only one who lives next to a SlothMart grocery world?
    Its a big chain with stock that is openly traded on Wall Street,yet people offer me baffled looks and exchange shifty,uneasy glances when I ask them if they've been there..what gives?

    It really exists,surely you've seen the commercials?
    they've been advertising like crazy during the Fizzball championships on Tv last weekend....and such bargains!
    They've got Sizzling Weasel on a stick for only $1.50 for a box of two!
    They're imported from the Phillipines,or some such socially backward place.
    Dipped in maple syrup they're quite a delicacy!
    A 40lb bag of Walrus chow is a paltry $15..(makes me wish I had taken in that stray walrus I found roaming in the alley last week)
    And where else are you going to satisfy that urge for honey roasted alligator tail as 2 in the morning.
    Sloth mart folks,surely you've seen it?!...that blow to the head I suffered playing tag with that ram at the zoo couldnt have scrambled my brain that badly.

    @ splash: Snuckey's is completely fictional.


    Stuckey's is the real deal. I think that's what Lemming's getting at.
