My sister brought me a couple of bottles of your rootbeer on Thanksgiving in 2002 because she knew that I worked as an inside counter boy at the Jo-Lee Frostop Drive-In in Beaver Dam, WI back in 1964. It was my first real job. I got paid 95¢ an hour and I could have all the rootbeer I wanted. I had a heck of a time making the giant 25¢ ice cream cones. I just couldn't get them to come out straight; they looked like the leaning tower of Pisa and the car hops had to really run to get them to the cars before they fell over.
