Sloppers With Personality
Mad Hatter Bar & Grille
The 23 restaurants also have distinct names for their respective sloppers. “Romero’s Café serves a Green Giant Slopper, and Mad Hatter Bar & Grille sells a Mad Slopper,” he says. “There are some pretty funny names, too, such as the Sloppy Cocker at Cock & Bull Tavern, and the Thunder Humper at Gold Dust Saloon.”
Future Slopper Days Slyhoff adds that the chamber plays up the slopper whenever it can. “The chamber is planning to organize a Slopper Days Celebration that will tentatively begin in 2011 and will become an annual event,” he says. “And for now, residents or visitors to Pueblo can go online at our www.pueblochamber.org website or visit our chamber office on North Santa Fe Avenue to get a brochure of all the restaurants that serve the slopper. That way, a person could try different sloppers all over the city. By the way, I’m working on having a slopper at all 23 locations. So far, they’re all excellent.” – Kevin Litwin
