While in Louisville for IdeaFest ’08, I picked up a documentary called My Porcelain Past which captures the last day of a 32 year old White Castle forced to close over a lease disagreement. Thousands came out that December day in 1988 to bid farewell, share stories and demonstrate an awesome sense of community. I wonder in this day and age what kind of institution would be necessary to draw the same crowds and spirit.

My Porcelain Past – A farewell party of gastronomic proportions.

The 20 minute documentary is up on YouTube in two parts or you can hit me up for my copy.
