Title: Question Post by: smith on March 25, 2013, 08:25:06 pm Does any one remember the old days I am 56.There was a plastic ball with two nipples, you put a scoop of ice cream in it, one nipple in the coke bottle & u suck through the other one, like a root beer float? Any soda for that matter. All my buddies think that I am nuts. Trying to remember the name of that plastic ball. Thanks Mike

Title: Re: Question Post by: sc1101 on March 25, 2013, 09:51:30 pm What a cool idea. I've never seen one before. Yes Collecture I've seen those kind before. I could see the joke coming.
Title: Re: Question Post by: LouisvilleMike on March 25, 2013, 10:24:12 pm Im not old enough (31) to remeber these at all but I have one still in the plastic! My Dad gave it to me after finding it in onweof his old cabinets in the garage!
Title: Re: Question Post by: collecture on March 26, 2013, 12:38:59 am Sorry...couldn't help it! Those darn kids have ruined it for me!
I am 52 and don't recall those at all. Title: Re: Question Post by: cola62 on March 26, 2013, 07:43:33 am I am 50 and have to say I have never seen that one before.
Title: Re: Question Post by: Larry on March 26, 2013, 08:01:09 am I never saw that before either. I wonder if one end had a rubber seal? I would imagine the pop would be spilling out of the bottle without one. Very cool, you could have crushed ice and chill your drink.
Title: Re: Question Post by: Eric on March 26, 2013, 03:31:51 pm Were these things red and white... look like a large fishing bobber? Remember seeing something like what you're talking
about in an antique store years ago... Coke made them. Title: Re: Question Post by: LouisvilleMike on March 26, 2013, 07:06:51 pm Where these things red and white... look like a large fishing bobber?
