I had no idea a club sandwich was supposed to be triple-decker. I didn't even realize turkey was required. I thought the only key was bacon. I mean, I don't eat bacon, so I have no experience with any sort of clubs.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

But that'd make the BLT a club. Proto-apocalyptic, that.

What were its other characteristics?
I've seen one that was grilled with ham, turkey and bacon, plus lettuce, tomato and mayo, but as I said only a normal double-decker sandwich. Wherever that place was, the brain cells assigned to that memory went on walkabout.
And I think Denny's has a grilled chicken "club" that's grilled chicken, bacon, lettuce, tomato and mayo. Feel free to purify any and all Denny's you run across.

Well, I meant that the key was the addition of bacon, the core sandwich being of another meat. And until recently, I didn't even know that a BLT was actually just bacon, lettuce, and tomato...because bacon didn't seem like it would make a good sandwich core. But I cooked up some turkey bacon and put it on some bread with mayo and lettuce, and it was indeed tasty.

This is the sort of thing that has contributed to my miseducation.

You don't even know.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I sure do love a good BLT.
I also enjoy the Subway club sandwich, which I'm pretty sure is their ham/turkey/roast beef combo on a roll, and in no way an actual club sandwich. Still enjoyable, though.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I thought it was meat + bacon = club sandwich.

That one really confuses me because not only is it not in any way triple-decker, there's NO BACON! It is a good sandwich, though. You're right about that.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I love my Buffistas so much. I can always count on a rousing, Friday afternoon food debate/discussion. It makes me smile.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Hmmm. Wikipedia says:
A club sandwich, also called a clubhouse sandwich, is a type of sandwich frequently served as a double-decker sandwich and generally cut into quarters, requiring three (rather than two) slices of toasted bread. The traditional club ingredients are turkey, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and mayonnaise served on toasted bread. Variations substitute another meat for the turkey (chicken breast and roast beef are common) and possibly ham for the bacon.
