Gil & Rick’s is owned and operated by Gil Grim and Richard Johnson – two longtime postal employees.
During the rescue, which happened back in February 2019 (Valentine’s Day), Jon changed the name of Gil & Rick’s to Sauced. Three months later, Sauced is still in business under the new name.
Going to be a stressful night tonight at Gil and Rick’s Sports Bar & Pizzeria…
