There are very few more satisfying things on a hot, summer day than a massive Slurpee the size of your head from your local 7-Eleven. They’re dirt cheap, ice cold, and…uhh, something about your mother being like a 7-Eleven. I forget the joke. It’ll come back to me.
Anyway, 7-Eleven wants you to forget all about that cold, harsh, hellish winter we survived and come jumpstart summer with a cup full of Slurpee. However, not just a standard, plastic Slurpee cup. Oh no, my friends. You can bring ANY cup your little heart desires. That’s right — This Saturday, April 11 – from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. local time – is “Bring Your Own Cup Day.” You can fill up ANY cup you bring in for the price of $1.49, the price of a 22-oz Slurpee.
7-Eleven is calling it their “summer kickoff,” according to Laura Gordon, vice president of marketing and brand innovation at 7-Eleven. Off-topic, if she’s the person that brought us Loaded Doritos, I want to marry her. Clearly, they’re hoping you come for the Slurpees and stay for the hot dogs.
OH NOW I REMEMBER THE JOKE – Your momma’s like a 7-Eleven: 24-hours, always hot to go, and for $1.49, she’ll give you a Slurpee. Ahh, nobody gives a shit. Moving on.
There’s a catch to this deal: You can’t bring in any cup larger than 10 inches in diameter, so nothing the size of a garbage can. You also can’t fill it into a shoe, or boot, or anything unsanitary, or something porous like a baseball hat. But think about the possibilities…you can fill up something the size of a gallon. You got a favorite trophy? Fill it to the fucking brim and dump it over your head with glory. Put it in a bucket, fill the other half with booze, and just chill outside with a bunch of straws and some good times. The possibilities are endless.
It’s gonna be bedlam. Get there early..

Brian wouldn’t have forgotten the joke in the first place.
What if Brian and JayTas had a falling out, and JayTas somehow ended coming out on top? That would be my worst nightmare.
This may rival pretzel day.
