'lil Dirty may just be the current Bill I'd most like to have dinner with.  He just sounds like a good time.

 

The article talks a lot about La Traila and how it got started, but has some stuff about McKenzie as a teammate:

 

Quote

McKenzie’s coaching staff and teammates appreciate him, too – even if they might not admit it.

 

“I hate him,” quarterback Josh Allen said with a wry smile.

 

“I’m never gonna go,” Diggs, who lives in South Florida in the offseason, joked when asked if he’s been to McKenzie’s restaurant.

 

It seems as if everyone on the team has a story about McKenzie – just very few of them can be told in the media.

 

Quote

After Sunday’s game against the Dolphins, McKenzie’s teammates and coaches will get to experience his other job. La Traila is catering some 200 postgame meals for the team and its staff – including Diggs.

 

“He has no choice,” McKenzie said. “That postgame meal is going to be my food and he's going to have to eat it. … They joke with me all the time, but they really want to have it.”

 

Let's hope there's a victory to add savor to the meal

My wife and I are going on a cruise to the Caribbean in February. Our port leaving and returning is Ft. Lauderdale. I may have to buy a McKenzie jersey and show up at La Traila.
