The only thing I'll miss from nationals: Frozen Carbonated Beverage
 

I know a lot of people are really upset about not going to nationals this year, I'll gladly say I'm pretty happy with not going. One think I will miss is the frozen carbonated beverage, but really I can't think of anything else.

So what's the one thing you'll miss from nationals if your not going? (if anything)

Just something I've been wondering...

the giant solar balloon that one of my teammates tried to make in 1999 and 2000. it really looked like a giant piece of poop or something. i mean what do you expect when trying to make it out of green/black garbage bags taped together.:cool:

Can't you just stick a can of coke in the freezer?
Its cheeper too.

Sleep?
Whats that?

hahahahaha....thats the best...i thought I might be the only one that will miss the carbonated beverages.....our team calls them flavored IV's....woah, i think i actually bought one once for a boy that i kinda liked....and he realllllllly liked that :)

Speaking of (sortof), are we still recieving our FIRST-soda this year that Dean said he'd buy?

Was it the drink he liked, or something else? :rolleyes:

...But I think someone said it...Stick a can of Pepsi (not coke) in the freezer...Just making sure you take it out before it explodes (been there done that).

National Beverage Corp is still listed as an official sponsor of nats.

Frozen Coke - last time I was there and paying attention (been a while) Burger King was selling it.

Nationals - This is easy. The only thing I'm going to miss is my friends (that I only see once a year to begin with).

After this amount of time in FIRST, I could really care less about who wins, though I'll cheer teams on with the best of them.

Yes, Lora, Burger King does selll frozen cokes, so don't anybody pine away longing for them, they not hard to find

cant you just freeze a can of soda?
 

In reply to some message early in the thread: you can't freeze a can of soda... it will explode all over your freezer (it expands when frozen, and makes the can burst open). You couls try it though... just make sure there's nothing else in your freezer.

But yes, frozen soda is good... I'll have to buy some when I'm there.

I have tried it...Let's just say I got cold hands cleaning the freezer...

And as for BK selling frozen pop....Who in their right mind would eat at a Buger King anyway? lol ;)

I used to eat at BK until I moved here and found the wonderful place known as Sonic :D not to mention on the main street from my place there are so many different fast food joints - dang, so much for just BK, McDonalds and Wendys like up north!

OH MY GOSH!
you didnt have sonic till when?!?
i am a complete sonic addict, when i pull up all i have to say is i want my regular and they know who i am, i would die without sonic...
hrm maybe i can talk them into selling some frozen carbonated beverage, that would be heaven

hehe... I didn't even know what a Sonic was until I moved to Tennessee... we just don't have variety up north in Massachusetts ;) I'm guessing Sonic is a Southern thing *shrugs* though the whole concept of a drive thru minus the actual driving through was a bit to get used to!

1. What is Sonic

2. A drive thru without driving thru?

walk thrus
 

In Toronto for the Canadian Regional the McDonalds had walk thrus. Isn't that genius. You just walk up to the window at the sidewalk and place your order. It's a great idea esp since i've been yelled at for walking through the drive thru here. lol it is fun

Our McDonalds have walk-thrus???

I didn't know that...

I'll have to check that one out....lol

AHHH YOU DONT KNOW WHAT SONIC IS?!?!?!

its a drive in, not a drive through
you drive up to a menu and push a button so they can take your order and then a car hop (often on roller skates) brings out your food, its a great system

im sorry to all you without the joys of sonic

i think ill go get some sonic now (#7 combo with fries and a vanilla diet dr pepper) mmmmm

I looked for the frozen carbonated beverages at nationals the whole time...never DID manage to find them. Were they even there?

Ashlee, no frozen drinks there. Me and Stephen spent 4 hours walking around looking for them on Thursday...

very true alex, and I was very dissapointed, but me and Tom got some at disney on sunday while you and keil and mark were sleeping :)

SONIC!!!
 

i love sonic! the first time i went was last july in mountain home arkansas(home of the bomb squad) on a mini vacation/roadtrip. and on the way back home to chicago we stopped at a sonic in illinois too. a few times ive driven down a few hours to southern/cental illinois just to go to the sonic. but its soo worth it.

I was SO disappointed that they didn't have any frozen carbonated beverages there! That was one of my favorite parts of nationals! They were so good....
