Since posting on the site will be light today (I'll tell you about it later), I decided to lighten up and have a little fun.
In honor of the most outrageous location for a diner in Danbury, I asking you the readers of HatCityBLOG for you help.
I'm looking for a new name to describe Elmer's Diner in future posts so please take part in my new poll and help this blogger out.
Moral of the poll: Elmer Palma's location of his diner is a shameless, insensitive joke on the residents of Danbury and New Fairfield that commute on Route 37 everyday.
UPDATE: Oh, I love my readers! My inbox has been filling up with people adding their own names to the diner so PLEASE, if you have a different name for the silly place, add it to the comments section so everyone can have a laugh.

On September 26, 2007, ten plaintiffs filed suit in response to an arrest of aday laborers at a public park in Danbury, Connecticut. Plaintiffs amended their complaint on November 26, 2007.
The amended complaint states that plaintiffs sought to remedy the continued discriminatory and unauthorized enforcement of federal immigration laws against the Latino residents of the City of Danbury by Danbury's mayor and its police department.
Plaintiffs allege that the arrests violated their Fourth Amendment rights and the Connecticut Constitution because defendants conducted the arrests without valid warrants, in the absence of exigent circumstances, and without probable cause to believe that plaintiffs were engaged in unlawful activity. In addition, plaintiffs allege that defendants improperly stopped, detained, investigated, searched and arrested plaintiffs. Plaintiffs also allege that defendants violated their Fourteenth Amendment rights when they intentionally targeted plaintiffs, and arrested and detained them on the basis of their race, ethnicity and perceived national origin. Plaintiffs raise First Amendment, Due Process and tort claims.
Plaintiffs request declaratory relief, damages and attorneys fees.
