A chain of restaurants that I *think* was started in Knoxville in the

early '70s and which then spread throughout the Southeast and maybe

farther. The reason I'm not positive it started in Knoxville is that

my aging brain may be confusing the origin of Ruby Tuesdays with the

origin of the song "Third-Rate Romance," which allegedly was written

in Ruby Tuesdays in Knoxville. Or maybe I'm confused about all of that.
