A year ago, Billings had 6 Burger King locations scattered across the city. Now, we're down to just 3 remaining.

Bye Bye, South Billings Boulevard

Over the weekend, it was discovered that the South Billings Boulevard location of Burger King has closed, and the owners provided a handy list of other locations you can still visit to get your flame-broiled burger fix.

Earlier this summer, Michael shared details on Mix 97.1 about the downtown Burger King location closing, the entire building, and the former downtown U.S. Bank drive-thru location being razed.

Also, Burger King on Grand Avenue has been transformed into a B.W. Blacksmith Coffee & Grill location.

And now, with the 3rd nail in the king's coffin, Burger King on South Billings Boulevard has closed.

Where Can I Get My Whopper?

If you are still hungering for a Whopper, you'll find them at the following 3 locations across Billings (well, Billings and Lockwood).

For the Heights, their location remains open at 820 Main Street.

For the "West End" of Billings, BK off of King Avenue West at 790 King Park Drive also remains open.

And finally, the Burger King in Lockwood at 2813 Old Hardin Road remains open.

What's Next?

What do you think should be put into this location? Personally, I would LOVE to see Shake Shack come to Billings... and it would be a nice "central" location in the city to plonk one down! I also miss Steak N' Shake... though that burger joint is best suited for sitting down and eating. The drive-thru was as slow as a glacier if I remember.

Montana's Museum Of The Rockies Is For Everyone! Check It Out

Museum of the Rockies is nestled right next to Bobcat Stadium in Bozeman. The Museum is part of the American Alliance of Museums, which means that the Museum of the Rockies is one of the 1,095 museums to hold this distinction. With over 33,000 museums nationwide, this is quite an accomplishment. 

The Museum of the Rockies is also part of the Montana Dinosaur Trail. What is that? It is a trail that runs through the state of Montana and has 14 locations. Each location will get you just a little closer to the history and knowledge of Dinosaurs.  

Museum of the Rockies has current and rotating exhibits. Currently, (December 2021) here are some of my favorites that are on display: Siebel Dinosaur Complex, Welcome to Yellowstone Country, which digs into the history of Montana, Enduring Peoples Exhibit, highlighting the American Indians of Montana, and the Paugh Exhibit, illuminating the stories that connect us with the Northern Colorado Rockies. You can see all the exhibits here to make planning your trip easier.

Museum of the Rockies is an independent 501 Non-Profit here in Bozeman. With that being said, they hold some of the most exquisite benefits throughout the year. This gives the museum the opportunity to continue to be a highlight for the city of Bozeman. Another way to continue the success of the Museum of the Rockies is to become a member.

If you are considering donating to the Museum of the Rockies, you can check it out here and decide which program works best for you. Help Bozeman keep this amazing learning tool open and available to everyone. Enjoy your time at the Museum of the Rockies.
