Boulder Brain Teaser: Sink or Swim! 🧠 |
| Last week’s teaser asked: Before he was a famous Hollywood star, what job did Robert Redford have in Boulder? | The answer is B) Janitor at The Sink! 🧽 |
| | Fun Fact: | The Sink, a beloved Boulder hangout, has been serving the community since 1923. It’s famous for its graffiti-covered walls and burgers. While working as a janitor here, Robert Redford was caught up in the restaurant’s unique, creative atmosphere long before he made it big in Hollywood. Today, The Sink remains a popular spot, and Redford's story adds a charming bit of history to this Boulder institution! |
