TONY PACKO's (Toledo, OH), Sunday, June 2 with KSU @ 10 AM.

We'll ride from the dealership to world famous Tony Packo's Restaurant in Toledo, for lunch, fellowship, and fun!

Tony Packo's Cafe is a restaurant that started in the Hungarian neighborhood of Birmingham, on the east side of Toledo, Ohio, at 1902 Front Street.

Founded in 1932, the restaurant became famous when it was mentioned in several episodes of the 1972-83 M*A*S*H television series. Dubbed "Toledo’s most famous eatery" and “a Toledo institution”, it is noted for its signature sandwich and large collection of hot dog buns signed by celebrities.

Packo invented his signature "sausage-and-sauce sandwich" on rye after he decided to add a spicy chili sauce to his sandwiches for more flavor. The sandwich features a Hungarian sausage called kolbász, not unlike the Polish kielbasa; slicing the sausage in half yields about the same amount of meat as a conventional hot dog. This creation became known as the "Hungarian hot dog", even though no such thing had come from the Old Country.
