10 Vintage Diners In Kansas That Serve Huge Portions

One retro diner on this list hands out jukebox-style players right at the booths. Another has been cooking chicken-fried steak and hash browns since 1963. I love that these old-school spots still exist. Kansas has diners in a former train depot, on a historic downtown street, and along a lonely stretch of US-36.

‘Shark Tank' investors loved this Haysville business, but did they invest in it?

A few things were immediately clear when this week’s “ Shark Tank ” aired with Haysville resident Jared Mortensen’s pitch . First, the sharks, the show’s potential investors, were immediately taken with Mortensen and his Real Men Apparel Co. Second, they also had a good time laughing — nay, giggling — about what he sells. That’s underwear with different pouches ranging from billiard-ball sizing all the way up to softball sizing, or the ball metric system as Mortensen explained. He told the investors that “underwear is traditionally designed flat in the front so it smashes the boys up against the body.” “I know,” shark Daymond John said. “I know.” Mortensen said the sharks probably were asking how a man goes about finding his size. “We are not asking that,” shark Rashaun Williams jokingly replied. The sharks loved his pitch and Mortensen’s various euphemisms around his products. “That was the funniest pitch I’ve heard in a long time,” Williams said. The sharks used a few euphemisms themselves. They got down to business and asked about his net and gross sales, too. Though they seemed impressed with his numbers, none of the judges jumped at Mortensen’s offer of a 7% stake in
