Winston Mezo, of Carbondale, hands a bagel to a customer on Oct. 30, 2016, as he stands behind his kart in the parking lot of Pinch Penny Liquors. Mezo has been selling bagels to the late-night crowds since 1983 and has since become a local legend. Mezo spends every Thursday, Friday and Saturday night satisfying late night cravings, weather permitting. “I’ve met some of the best kids I’ve ever met in my life right here at these bagel karts,” he said. Mezo got into the bagel business as a distraction from drinking. He’s been sober for as many years as he’s been serving bagels. This Thursday through Saturday is his last weekend selling bagels before retiring on Sunday. (Anna Spoerre | @annaspoerre)
