Eurasia, 1972
This is not to say that Grandpa Uno found the Holy Grail during his recent visit to Mesopotamia. However, it is rumored that when Grandpa returned to Chicago with a frail golden chalice, from which he regularly drank his favorite Island Bliss Margaritas, he demonstrated a youthful exuberance that his friends and colleagues had not seen in many, many years, if at all.

Wales: 1943
During World War II, Grandpa Uno led a large battalion overhill in a grassy town in Wales. Atop the hill, they fought, and were winning. Then General Grandpa Uno marched them back down and the battle began to turn.
The battle continued for days, up the hill and down the hill. When they were up, they were up. And when they were down, they were down. At one point, they were only halfway up the hill and Grandpa Uno's men were neither up nor down.
In the end, Grandpa Uno brought both sides together over Island Bliss Margeritas and Tuscany Bread, which would later be added to the menu at Pizzeria Uno. They came to terms and decided to credit the battle to a fictional character known only as "The Grand Old Duke of York."
We all know the truth.
