                                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                           MARCH 31, 1997
                                             (UNAUDITED)

1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying  unaudited financial  statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted  accounting  principles for interim financial
information  and Item  310(b) of  Regulation  SB. They do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted  accounting  principles
for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting only of normal  recurring  adjustments)  considered  necessary for a
fair presentation have been included.  The results of operations for the periods
presented are not  necessarily  indicative of the results to be expected for the
full year.  For further  information,  refer to the financial  statements of the
Company as of June 30, 1996,  and the notes  thereto,  included in the Company's
Form 10-KSB.

2.       COMMON STOCK

         For the  period  July 1, 1996 to March  31,  1997,  575,497  additional
shares of Class A common stock were issued.


ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At March  31,  1997 the  Company  had a working  capital  deficit  of  $136,811,
compared to a working  capital  deficit of $297,316 on March 31, 1996.  On March
31,  1997,  and March 31,  1996,  the Company had cash and cash  equivalents  of
$32,866,  and  $58,367,  respectively.  The  increase in working  capital can be
attributed to a number of items.

The Company has entered into a consulting agreement with Continental Capital and
Equity Corporation ("Continental Capital") to assist the Company with its public
relations and promotional activities.  The Company prepaid this agreement,  with
cash and stock, which contributed to the increase in current assets, and working
capital.  The stock issued under this  agreement  was valued at $258,750,  which
will be amortized over the life of the  agreement.  Of the $50,000 in cash which
was paid under the  agreement,  and the $258,750 of stock  issued,  $165,875 has
been included in general and  administrative  expenses for the nine months ended
March 31, 1997. Also, an increase in the amount payable from affiliates resulted
in an increase to current assets and working capital.

Current  liabilities  were $447,889 and $464,015 on March 31, 1997 and March 31,
1996,  respectively.  On March 31, 1997, and March 31, 1996,  total  liabilities
were $742,838 and $929,202, respectively.


                                        6

<PAGE>



The difference in total  liabilities  between March 31, 1997 and March 31, 1996,
is primarily  attributable  to the  conversion  of the note due to a stockholder
into Class A Common Stock.

On March 31,  1997,  the  Company  had total  stockholders'  equity of  $11,350,
contrasted with a stockholders' deficit of $183,999 on March 31, 1996. A private
placement for $500,000, in October,  1996, along with the conversion into equity
of a note  due to a  shareholder  and the  stock  issued  under  the  consulting
agreements, contributed to the increase in stockholders' equity.

The Company has received  subscriptions for 2,918 shares of Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock which,  until the Company is authorized to issue this stock, has
been accounted for as equity investments in Class A Common Shares.

Currently, the Company is dependent upon advances from shareholders and the sale
of stock to meet its financing needs. There is no guaranty that the Company will
be able to obtain additional financing from these sources.

1997, operating expenses were $2,706,106, as compared to $1,334,801 for the nine

were  $1,419,888,  in contrast to $882,716  for the nine months  ended March 31,
1996.  The Company's  general and  administrative  expenses were  $1,178,530 and
$351,273  for the  nine  months  ended  March  31,  1997  and  March  31,  1996,
respectively.  General and  Administrative  expenses for the nine months  ending

Consulting fees include,  among other items, the previously  mentioned  expenses
for the Company's  agreements with Continental  Capital and  Bridgewater,  along
with an expense  of $84,375  related  to an  expired  consulting  agreement  the
Company entered into with Cambria Investment Group, Ltd.

In October,  1996, the Company entered into a six (6) month  Financial  Services
Agreement with  Bridgewater  Capital  Corporation  ("Bridgewater"),  pursuant to
which Bridgewater will perform  investment  banking  activities for the Company.
Under this  agreement,  $50,000 has been included in general and  administrative
expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 1997,  of which $10,000 was paid in
cash and the balance of the  agreement was paid in April 1997 with 65,000 shares
of stock registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form S-8.

Interest expense for the nine months ended March 31, 1997, was $42,162, compared
to $124,439 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996.

On October 18, 1996, the Company  entered into a Stock  Purchase  Agreement with
Joseph  Rollins  to  purchase  a 67.5%  interest  in Jocks & Jills  Prado,  Inc.
("Prado") and a 60.75% interest in Divine Events,  Inc.  ("Divine").  Prado does
business under the name Frankie's Food - Sports - Spirits,  a sports bar located
in Atlanta,  Georgia.  The Company made an earnest  money deposit of $50,000 and
made an additional  $10,000  deposit for an extension of the Closing  Date.  The
Stock Purchase Agreement was terminated on February 7, 1997, and the deposits of
$60,000 have been included in the Company's General and Administrative  expenses
for the three and nine months ended March 31, 1997.

The  Company has entered  into a  non-binding  letter of intent with Main Event,
Inc., a Delaware  corporation ("Main Event"),  pursuant to which the Company and
Main Event were to negotiate  the terms of a merger and share  exchange by April
30, 1997. Pursuant to a letter dated May 15, 1997, the letter of intent has been
extended  to May 23,  1997.  Main  Event  is a  privately  held  restaurant  and
entertainment  management  company based in Dallas,  Texas. Main Event,  through
partnerships in which it is a general and limited  partner,  creates,  develops,
and operates multi-venue restaurant and attraction complexes.

Any such  merger  is  contingent  upon the  Company  having  sufficient  capital
resources  to provide  for its  operations  until such time that an  offering of
securities  can be made. The terms of the  transaction  with Main Event have not
been finalized,  and management does not know if or when such a transaction will
take place.

Main Event, Inc.
12225 Greenville Avenue, Suite 532
Dallas, Texas 75243

Dear Sirs:

         This letter will  confirm the various  discussions  that have been held
between Classic Restaurants,  Inc., a Colorado corporation (Classic"),  and Main
Event,  Inc.,  a Delaware  corporation  ("Main  Event"),  relative to a proposed
merger of Main Event with and into Classic (the "Merger").

         The objective of our  discussions  has been the  execution,  as soon as
[initials in margin]feasible  but no later than [text marked out] April 30, 1997
(unless  mutually  extended by both parties),  of a definitive  merger agreement
(the "Agreement").

         The  Agreement  shall  provide,  among  other  things,  for the various
matters set forth below:

         1. Main Event shall be merged with and into  Classic and the Main Event
shareholders  shall  receive  shares of Classic  Class A Common  Stock for their
shares of Main Event Common Stock on terms to be set forth in the Agreement in a
transaction which is intended to qualify as a tax free reorganization within the
meaning of Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

         2. The parties agree that  directors and officers of Classic  following
the merger shall be the same as the  officers and  directors of Main Event as of
the date of this letter, except that James Robert Shaw shall be appointed to the
board of directors of Main Event for at least ____ years following the merger.

         3. At Closing  or as soon as  possible  after  Closing,  Classic  shall
change its name to Main Event, Inc.

         4.  The  obligations  of the  parties  under  the  Agreement  shall  be
expressly subject to, among other things, the following:

                  a. Compliance by the parties in all material respects with all
applicable laws, orders, and regulations of federal,  state,  municipal,  and/or
other  governments  and/or any  instrumentality  thereof,  domestic  or foreign,
applicable  to their  assets,  to the  business  conducted  by them,  and to the
proposed transaction;

             [Letterhead of Classic Restaurants International, Inc.]

                  b. The  approval of the  transaction  by the  shareholders  of
Classic and Main Event, which approval shall be obtained as soon as possible.

                  c. The  satisfactory  completion  by each  company  of its due
diligence review of all books,  records,  and business  financial affairs of the
other company; and

                  d. Current  financial  statements of both  companies in a form
meeting the requirements for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

         5.  At  the  closing,   neither  Classic  nor  main  Event  shall  have
experienced any changes in key management positions,  any adverse changes in its
business operation, or any significant decreases in its assets.

         6. The  parties  agree that upon  execution  of this  letter Main Event
shall not discuss or explore any other reverse merger transaction with any other
business or individual until the earlier of (a) the mutual  determination by all
[markings in margin] parties hereto not to proceed with the proposed transaction
or (b) [text marked out] April 30, 1997 (unless mutually extended).

         Upon your  execution  and return to us of this letter of intent,  as of
the date hereof,  counsel for classic shall prepare and the parties hereto shall
execute the Agreement  containing  provisions in accordance  with the foregoing,
together with such further items as are appropriate under the circumstances. The
Agreement  shall specify the date of Closing and shall  contain  representations
and  warranties  relating  to,  among  other  things,  the  business,  financial
conditions,  certain legal matters and properties of Classic and Main Event, the
securities to be issued by Classic,  securities  issued and  outstanding of Main
Event  and  Classic,   and  other  matters  deemed   appropriate  and  usual  in
transactions  of this nature.  No party hereto shall be obligated to  consummate
the Merger, unless and until the Agreement,  in form and substance acceptable to
the parties, has been duly executed by the parties.

         Main Event and Classic  hereby  agree to  cooperate  with each other so
that a due  diligence  review of all  books,  records,  business  and  financial
affairs of the other can be  completed  prior to the  execution  of a definitive
agreement.  Classic and Main Event agree to hold in confidence  any  information
obtained from the other that is confidential in nature and, if no transaction is
completed,   to  return  to  the  other  any  material  containing  confidential
information.
