On Saturday, May 18, 2019, the staff of Mr. Perkins Family Restaurant received a very sweet surprise for the restaurant’s 50th Anniversary when NBA legends Shaquille O’Neal and Charles Barkley, along with sportscaster Ernie Johnson, stopped by for lunch while in town to watch the Milwaukee Bucks play the Toronto Raptors.
