I'm going to take some credit. For some reason the Mayan became a traditional "thing we did" each summer when visiting Utah. It had great appeal when the kids were younger (indoor jungle, high terraces, smoke and fire, and people jumping off cliffs), but I grew tired of the overpriced bad food and panty-boy divers.
I put an end to our participation last summer.Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!
For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

why did it last so long? Was it just the sheer willpower of Larry H when he was alive and then his memory that sustained it?Originally posted by Coach McGuirk View PostDio perdona tante cose per un’opera di misericordia

I got a burrito there that I didn't finish. Do you realize how bad that is? I'm known in some circles as 'the human garbage disposal.'Originally posted by pellegrino View Post
Anyway, they should have just microwaved a Lynn Wilson and served it with a cup of ranch, because that would have been about a thousand times better than the dry, flavorless, mediocre turd they served me."I'm anti, can't no government handle a commando / Your man don't want it, Trump's a bitch!

You have got me. I wish I could convey the shittiness of the food they served. You couldnt have made worse Mexican food. They could have served Los Hermanos and that would have been fine dining in comparison. Rain forest cafe sucks and it puts Mayan to shame.Originally posted by pellegrino View PostComment

I've never been there but when it opened people would wait for hours to get a table... How could it be that bad?What's to explain? It's a bunch of people, most of whom you've never met, who are just as likely to be homicidal maniacs as they are to be normal everyday people, with whom you share the minutiae of your everyday life. It's totally normal, and everyone would understand.

The overhead on a place like that must be enormous. They have these Pirate Island Pizza places that had a similar, though not as big of a premise. A couple idiot partners at my old firm invested in it after I expressed some healthy skepticism. The pizza was incredibly bad, worse than Peter Piper bad. The kids would rope the parents into going once and the parents would then vow to never go again. After awhile, the supply of people with small kids is exhausted and the place fails.Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”Comment

If you opened up a can of refried beans, microwaved some rice, put it in a heated frozen tortilla and garnished it with spicy ketchup, that would just about get you to the burrito at the Mayan.
We ate there the summer it opened. Like marsupial noted, we waited in line. We saw the cliff diving penises. We also endured the lousy service, something that rarely seems to get run when talking about the Mayan.
Unlike traditional Mayan sacrifices, we somehow lived to tell the tale.Fitter. Happier. More Productive.
