The ROMEO Club
By a friend • February 27, 2026
My parents are both retired and a few years ago they moved down to Florida away from everyone they know.
We've got zero family there and I have no idea what made them decide to do this.
Assumed they lived a lonely life. lol.
Anyways I recently learned that my dad has a monthly lunch club made of up other old, retired guys who live in the same area. Once a month they get together for lunch and spend a few hours hanging out at a restaurant. And they rotate on who picks the restaurant.
But the best part about of this to me is is that they've named this group. Like the group itself isn't wholesome enough!
They call it the ROMEO club, which he told me stands for Retired Old Men Eating Out club.
Ain't that just the cutest thing? I was at this house over the weekend when we had one of these lunch meet-ups and he got ready TWO HOURS early just to make sure he got there on time.
