The first result, a paid-placement, was for Big Mama's Rib Shack. This 3 out of 5 star establishment is located a scant 955.41 miles away from my house–just a quick drive down to Pasadena, Ca. Something tells me that either Mapquest is broken or Big Mama paid a bit too much for such widespread advertising.
Estimated Travel Time: 928 minutes; 955.41 miles.
