There are certain truths about people who work in radio:

1. We are hungry and want food right now.

2. We are completely willing to stare at you from the window.

Since Campisi's is spitting distance from us, we've obsessively followed its progress -- like we're waiting on a baby to take its first steps.

A representative with Campisi's told us that the Lubbock restaurant is currently set to open Monday, September 5th, 2016. That's less than 30 sleeps away.

The location is the first Campisi's outside its home of North Texas. Texas Tech alum Jesse Jenkins, who's worked for a decade at the Dallas-Fort Worth restaurant, has been named General Manager. The restaurant is currently hiring and filling all positions.

You can see video of the Campisi's sign being put up below.
