in 1991, President Bush came to Billy Goat for a visit and to meet Sam.
Sam calls Mike and excitedly tells his assistant over the phone, “The president wants to know if Mike is here. I tell him no and then he wants to know where he usually sits and I show him and he seems very excited to see where he site when he comes down here.”
Sam wants Mike to have a burger with Bush. Hes says no. Sam calls Mike’s wide, Judy. Shes wants him to go. He says no. Mike often refers to Bush as “the greatest tourist of our time,” and in the next day’s Tribune writes, “The country is going to hell in a hand basket, and the president of the United States wants to know on what part of the bar I rest my elbows? Or forehead?”

Apr 16, 2018 | Billy Goat Burgers, Cheezborger
Chicagoans know a great burger when they taste one. That’s why they’ve made Billy Goat Tavern’s Cheezborger the G.O.A.T. of Chicago-style burgers.
Our buns are fresh-baked and grill-toasted, because that’s how Billy Goat rolls.
Cheezborgers are made for stacking. They’re cooked thin to keep the flavor in. Thinner Patties = Thicker Flavor.
Double’s DA BEST!!
Triple’s even BETTER!!!
Chicagoans are also very fickle about their pickle. And, we have the best pickles on the planet!
Butt in anytime and have a real Chicago-style burger!
