“Wendel was a
man with a stick in his hands. Who
learned how to play in Kelvington S-A-S-K.” (Rheostatics-Ballad of Wendel
Clark)
Hello Everyone,
In 1985 this great
hockey player was drafted first overall by the Toronto Maple Leafs. He made a huge impact on hockey and on the
city of Toronto. He made the city proud
and to this day Leaf fans everywhere still smile when the name “Wendel Clark”
is mentioned. I not only got a chance to watch this great man play hockey, but,
I idolized the hound line. The hound
line is the reason I am a Toronto Maple Leafs fan.
So, when I got an opportunity
to go to Wendel Clark’s Classic Grill and Bar in Vaughan, I got to do my “happy
dance.” LOL I was pleasantly greeted by a great staff and was delighted to discover
the atmosphere was fantastic. Wait, it
gets better. My pulled pork sandwich was
amazing, the chicken sliders made me sing but when I got an autographed Wendel
jersey, I became the happiest girl in the bar. Now, the only thing left would
be to meet “Captain Crunch” in person! I met Russ Courtnall. I met Gary Leeman. Now, I need the last member of that “hound
line” to make my life complete. Ha-ha. I
suppose I could go eat there every weekend, and hope to see Wendel. The food is incredible, but would that make
me a stalker? LOL
Wendel Clark’s
Classic Grill and Bar in Vaughan, has truly won my heart. If you are a Wendel Clark fan, you will be in
heaven at this bar. I have been there
twice in the last month. No, I am not trying to stalk Wendel, I actually do
really enjoy the food. LOL Check out their website for location, menu and reservations.

Wendel, you inspire
all Leaf fans. You have made this city
proud. It was an honour to get to eat at
your bar. Thank you, to the staff at
Wendel Clark’s Bar for making my experience incredible and a special thank you
to David, for my amazing jersey!!!
Until next time boys
and girls, “remember, to always just be yourself, it will eventually one day
pay off…”
