I’m sure ole Bob is spinning in his grave.

I knew Bob Evans and his family personally. He is from the same hometown(Gallipolis) in Ohio as me. The first Bob Evans restaurant is at one of his farms in Rio Grande, Ohio. He loved to hunt Quail and grouse and was a big supporter of the second admendment. He had a prize english setter and had heard about my Brittany spaniel and ask if I would take him out hunting. He was so impressed with my dog that he bought a Brittany shortly after. I hunted with this dog a few times and but he never panned out. As far as Bob goes-he was a down to earth person. He never touted his fame and alot of people even in my hometown didn't even know who he was. He also was a staunch Republican and couldn't stand the liberal way of thinking. I guarantee your right and he is turning over in his grave!
