Who Want’s Jimmy John’s?

    I think that’s the font, not an apostrophe. The “s” in wants matches the “s” in John’s aside from the correct apostrophe.

    Now the over capitalization…

      Tuffy — I think you’re right!

        This ^

        It’s not an apostrophe! Take it down!

      That’s what I came here to say!

      This place does look like somewhere I would try out though, if I lived in the US.

      I disagree; if you look at the s in wants and the s in John’s you’ll see that they are different.
      For my part, I’ll accept the apostrophe in John’s, as mentioned below.
      And I’ll agree with you on the over capitalisation.

    Do all Jimmy John’s have a sign that says “We You God”?

    If you could zoom in on that particular sign, you’d see (if I remember correctly) “We make sandwiches. You eat sandwiches. God bless America.”

    I actually believe this is correct, if one may infer an unwritten word “restaurant” after Jimmy John’s. Is the name of the presumed owner Jimmy John or Jimmy Johns? That would make all the difference.
