Just noticed this. It was closed with no stated reason.

The Stewart Sandwiches thread may be my favorite on the board - not because I particularly care about the topic, but because it has been bumped over 40 times, and almost every time with **relevant posts.** I believe it is wholly unique and unsurpassed in this regard.

It should be unlocked and once again made available for the next person who googles this weirdly specific topic and wants to share an anecdote with us.

Probably revived by a spammer. Note the last post (that we can still see) was in January.

Strongly agree. Threads like this are a strength of the Dope.

I closed it due to spam back in May. We often quietly close old threads when they become spam magnets.

This response makes this my all-time favorite ATMB thread. No muss, no fuss, no drama, no over-thinking… just: “done.” _Well_ done, **ECG**!
