Popcorn Wagon growing pains.

It seems that the Popcorn Wagon is Closed until further notice. For one reason or another. Word on the street varied form not enough business to employee shortage, it’s probably something else all together, we’re really not sure.
Ever since an ambitious overall of the Antique Popcorn Wagon earlier this summer, which involved getting rid of the original antique wagon, it was evident the wagon was being pulled in a new direction. The addition of metal benches and tables around the corner space seemed like it might be headed in the “right” direction. But it seems the “remodel” did not have the right approvals from the city. Which makes you wonder.

Upon reopening for the fall and early winter the hours where changed to close at 7 p.m. instead of 2 or 3 a.m. which makes you wonder.

I know the after hours crowd is not the best crowd to serve when they are drunk, sloppy, and surly, but it is the popcorn wagon that they have always turned to for relief. After a night of failed conquest a good savory crepe can make you forget about all that. Alas now there is no wagon to turn to. I suppose it wouldn’t be such a big deal if it hadn’t been such a late night tradition for years upon years. Hearing drunks mutter lets go to the wagon was somehow reassuring. Like all things Aspen, I guess it was only time for the Wagon to gentrify itself.

The Popcorn Wagon’s New look.. Fine.
New menu… could be good.
New hours…. Makes me wonder…
Closed until further notice….. we need hope and courage….
Yes there is always New York Pizza…
