Dippin' Dots has filed for bankruptcy! Ice Cream Man, say it ain't so!!!!!!!!!! I found this on another site had to repost for cruiser 96.

Two things:

#1) Other site??? What's that mean??????

#2) I saw. Read the whole bankruptcy report. BAH!!!

I think we can forge ahead though. Someone told me that there was wrestling going on at the Schott that weekend. I thought that was a weird combo... Wrestling at an Ice Cream Festival. Odd.

But now that I think about it, I can't belive I thought all those people there shared their undying love for freezer burnt droplets of creamed ice shavings! But hey, I did. 68,000+ for a bowl (or three) of cookies'n'cream... why not!? Back then it made total sense. But it does explain the weird look I'd get from parents and grandparents. Whew! If looks could kill from a couple of those folks.

Anywho, let's see what they try to subtitute it with. Perhaps I'll buy marketing space and just sit at a desk. I can be the side shows of all side shows. Maybe one day, bring my guitar. Another day, do the only three finger/thumb illusions I have. Perhaps I'll learn to draw or make balloon animals and shapes. (I am currently honing that skill. It's the only reason I threw it in there. So far I have a snake and a worm down. Next week starts the advanced class; things like a sausage and a tadpole.)


Again, I think we can do this if we all pull together. Perhaps a moment of silence prior to the finals would set all of our hearts at ease.

Make me a bicycle balloon man!

My daughter went to the OSU vs. Florida games this week and upon her return she informed me that there were no Dippin' Dots. Then she broke the news about the bankruptcy. Apparently they did not apply for a federal bailout?

Not the ice cream of the future???

I doubt that the company is actually going away. From what I remember reading a while ago the company isn't in that bad of shape considering. But I've been wrong before.

LONG LIVE THE FUTURE!

I can confirm.....I was at the game......WITH NO FLIPPIN DIP N DOTS

If attendance plummets to roughly 1/14th of what it usually is, we know the culprit. What will the OHSAA do now that "Come for the Dippin' Dots, stay for the wrestling!" no longer can be used for advertising purposes?

Seriously, people?? The dippin dots does not bring me to the Schott. The wrestling does. Get your priorities straight!

Blasphemy!!! Burn this man at the stake!

No, guillotine.

Absurd! Death by dismemberment!!! Long live the ice cream of the future!!! ( Can we REALLY use that slogan in good faith anymore? Can we look ourselves in the mirror and still believe this. Makes me wonder how some of you sleep at night. But then again, lying down with your eyes closed is probably the answer.)
