All this talk of ice cream, now I want some.
Do I go to Culver's for some frozen custard, or DQ?
Decisions, decisions.
Or maybe I wait and hope the bar has dessert nachos tonight? For those wondering about dessert nachos, it's fried tortillas with ice cream, chocolate sauce and whip cream.

This has been me since The Great Strawberita Showdown of 2013 and I'm still sucking it up and working. :p
 
Re: Poll: Rep Retirement Lodge #165: Spring Has Sprung!

Why do I look up answers to trivia games that have already taken place? There was a bonus question at the bar we played at last week, where the top 3 teams got a chance to answer the question and win an additional $100.

The question was something like: What band/artist spent 14 weeks at #1 in 1996?

My answer was Los Del Rio. The answer the trivia guy said was Celine Dion. No one won. So, today I looked up the top 100 list for 1996, just to see if I had the correct year for the Macerena. I did. And, hey, look, 14 weeks at #1. Oh, and, "Because you loved me" only had 6 weeks at #1. :mad: I want my $100! :mad:

Meanwhile, I can win $55 tonight if Louisville wins and fewer than 134 points total are scored (I'd be tied for 2nd so points scored breaks the tie). I do not want those $55. Go Blue!

You ABSOLUTELY take that proof to the place and get your money. Or free drink coupons, or something. That is so wrong.

I'll take the $55 if you win and don't want it. :) I can buy les and Patman a beverage in Pittsburgh with that money!

OK, since this has evolved into an ice cream discussion......I am an ice cream person. New Englanders eat more ice cream per capita than any other part of the county and as such, I feel like we have way more options for ice cream here. My absolute fave is Brigham's chocolate. It is still available, despite having been bought by Hood. I prefer hard ice cream over soft serve but if soft serve is all that it is available, I love Dairy Queen. There used to be one in my hometown plus others close by but they all closed. There are still a few on Cape Cod. Kimball Farms is awesome, because you get SO MUCH. Bedford Farms is another one I go to quite a bit during the summer when it's open.

I love arenas that serve ice cream. And not those crime-against-humanity Dippin' Dots. Or novelties. I'm looking at you Tsongas. Used to serve Brigham's there but stopped. That made me sad. Fenway serves Hood soft serve. I recall getting into an argument at the Homer Dome in Minneapolis years back when I went out there to see the Red Sox. They're waffle cone sundae for some reason only came with vanilla when they had chocolate. It was very odd. They're reasoning was they wanted to save it. I mean, what if more people wanted the waffle cone sundae with chocolate ice cream? And then someone wanted a helmet sundae and they were out of chocolate??? I was like "Yeah, it's the bottom of the 5th and there's less than 20K people here. I do not think that is going to be a problem." They still wouldn't do it for me. Idiots.

There is a DQ about 30 miles from me in a town called Starbuck. Only open in the summer I believe. FWIW their equipment is still old school. Their soft serve DQ ice cream is way different (in a good way) that any other DQ anywhere. Hard to explain but even on the hottest day it takes a long time for it to begin melting. Not sure what the difference is but people actually drive quite the distance to buy their ice cream.

I have a chance to win my NCAA bracket. If any of you have a soul ( I figure about half the Lodge :)) please send positive vibes towards a Louisville win tonight. Louisville wins and I get $5,310. Michigan wins and I get $2,655. Thank you.

I'll be 100% in your corner. Not even because of your money, but because **** Michigan. Though, the $$$ is a pretty nice bonus.

I doubt I'll even watch the game.
