FOR ALL THE WRONG REASONS >>
Down in Texas, where this resident lush hails from, Sonic America's Drive-Ins are scattered everywhere. To me, another Sonic grand opening is not a big deal. Maybe Tacoma is bored, but for some reason this city is apeshit crazy over a fast food joint taking up space in a Kmart parking lot. For this, I must do my part as a transformed Tacoman and report back to my editors with Sonic's opening day pictures.
What I do love about Sonic - and is my very favorite part of any Sonic visit - are the cherry/lime "Famous Slushes." Mmmmm! Nothing beats a blistery 97 degree/99 percent humidity day down in the asscrack of Houston, Texas like a huge Sonic cherry/lime Slush spiked with vodka. Of course, those kind of days aren't as abundant up here in the Pacific Northwest, but that doesn't mean you can't enjoy a little vodka/Slush concoction every once in a while.
Seeing as how Sonic is a traditional drive-in (with food hops on skates and everything!), I would not recommend partaking in my Slush/vodka suggestion while in the Sonic parking lot. Be smart and take it home. Don't drink and drive, Tacoma.

You must understand.....Tacoma is the cultural armpit of America. This is huge for us!

Fuck, how can you not be excited about this, Steph? I have been tormented for years with commercials for Sonics, and now it's finally here! I can't wait to try it and probably be disappointed by it.
All I want is new fast food. That's all. I passed by it a few days ago and the patio was full of employees undoubtedly being subjected to some sort of training. It looked like a Jim Jones deal, and I squealed with joy the prospect of a Tacoma cult of burger personality.
I can't wait to taste their brainwash combos.
