Trivia[]
- Angry Grandpa, Michael, and Bridgette have met a few different fans of The Angry Grandpa Show here.
- Angry Grandpa likes the #19, which has a lot of meat, cheese and mayonnaise.
- Michael, Bridgette, and Michelle like the #5, which has turkey, cheese, and possibly ham.
- Michael and Bridgette were going to take Angry Grandpa to Substation II on Easter Sunday 2012, but they told him that they were taking him to a nursing home instead as a prank.
- Angry Grandpa participated in a Toys for Tots event partnered together with Substation II in 2013 and 2015.
- Michelle had several attempts at seducing Derrick.
- On Janurary 9, 2024, Derrick announced on the restaurant’s Google Maps updates tab that the restaurant would be permantely closing on January 26, 2024, after 47 years of operation. This had later been brought into the attention of Bridgette, in which she warned Michael about in a vlog. During the vlog, Michael and Bridgette were in denial of the restaurant closing. Their weren’t sure if the restaurant was closing or not. But once they arrived to the restaurant, a sign appeared outside of the restaurant’s door, claiming that the restaurant’s closure was, indeed, true.
- It was confirmed in an X post by Michael that the reason why this location was closing was due to the request of the owners of the property, in which he says that they “thrown him out”. In the vlog, Derrick claimed that the property is going to be torn down, possibly including the whole strip mall. It’s unknown why the property and/or strip mall is being demolished, but it could be likely due to a city expansion being done by the City of North Charleston, with there being known histories of city expansions in the Charleston area (e.g. closure of Trailwood Trailer Park, two of Michael’s older houses being converted into other purposes, etc.).
