I dearly love seafood of all types, but there is no chance of me standing in a line like that for it. None!

The lines there are much worse on New Years. They hire off-duty deputies to prevent fish riots.

Huh.

I just ran down to the local Co-op, in and out with a bag of live lobsters in about 5 minutes.

Yep. I don’t stand in lines like that. I’ll hit nasty McDonalds before I’d wait that long.

BBQ salmon is our favorite meal for holidays. But I wouldn't wait in line for it.

Out West, Dungenous crab season recently opened.

We had early Christmas dinner on Sunday, prime rib with crab salad.

Crab? Sorry--for me, "seafood" has fins.

Christmas Eve dinner for us is stone crab and shrimp. And to help wash it down, a nice bubbly and a dry riesling from Alsace are also on the table.

OMG. Joe Patti. Whenever we visit my wife’s family in Pensacola (Milton actually) we go to Joe Patti and load up on all kinds of fresh seafood and her uncle has the best southern fish fry with all the friends and family in his outdoor kitchen. He has a riverfront house on the black water river. I just showed her this picture and she got a huge smile. Thank you.

We just had our first Dungeness crab dinner a few nights ago. The season was delayed almost a month.

My wife said that's what the line at the local Honey Baked Ham looked like. There where cars lined up to just get in the parking lot. She got a bam at Publix instead.

I wouldn't stand in that line if they were giving it away!

Joe Pattie's is an amazing place. If it lives in the water they have it!

Seafood is traditional for Christmas Eve for a lot of people. They must have some good seafood to have a line like that.
