Also, still don't understand the connection you were making earlier between "white" and "all-American".
Big Boy's has been around since at least the 1940's. Back then it was teenage white kids going up there for fries and shakes and being clean-cut and all that old crap. Notice his hair cut-very 50's. All-american is typically thought of as baseball, apple pie, teenage white kids getting shakes.
