A local favorite burger and hot dog joint near the Dan river for over 60 years!
Still open today at the original location seen here & Franklin Turnpike, Danville, VA
A little history: The original restaurant was a Wimpy's when Gunnell first bought it. But Gunnell's truck-driver husband, Carroll, had the CB-radio nickname “Possum,” which is what she would end up calling her eatery.
