Gino's Hamburgers
Gino's Hamburgers was a fast-food restaurant chain based in Baltimore, Maryland, founded by Baltimore Colts defensive end Gino Marchetti and running back Alan Ameche in 1959. It was a successful East Coast regional fast food restaurant and had 313 company owned locations when they were sold to Marriott International in 1982 and were converted to their Roy Rogers restaurants brand.
The restaurant was known for high quality hamburgers such as the Sirloiner, which was made from sirloin steak, and the Gino Giant, which competed with the Big Mac. The company held the franchise for Kentucky Fried Chicken in the middle-Atlantic states. Their slogan was "Everybody goes to Gino's".
