State #7: Florida. 06/15/2016

After checking out a San Francisco Giants home game last month, I decided to go the other side of the country to check them out again, but on the road in the dome!  The Giants were making a rare trip to Tampa and circumstances just so happened to line up so that I was able to make the trip!  And while in Florida, why not have a slurpee!!!

This wasn't just any slurpee, however... it was a Orlando City SC Slurpee!!  Orlando City SC are a Major League Soccer club and this flavor promoted the team.  I don't know anything about them, but their slurpee flavor is off the charts!!!

I'm posting this from Florida and haven't gone to the game yet... hope the Giants win!!

I got my tasty grape slurpee at:

12902 Newsome Road
Dover, Florida 33527




Reason for being in Florida: SF Giants vs. Tampa Bay Rays game
Quality of Slurpee: SUPER AWESOME!!!!
Flavor: Grape
Location: Dover, Florida

State #6: California. 05/28/2016

During a quick visit to California to lay down some tracks for a new album coming out, I went ahead and knocked CA off the slurpee list!  My brother and his dog Febe accompanied me to a local 7-eleven where they surprisingly had both COKE and PEPSI options!!!  I had tried the pepsi earlier, but for the official photo, I got a good mango flavor.  It was great!!  The location of this awesome 7-eleven is:

853 E. Yosemite Ave
Manteca, California 95336

Febe and me!


Reason for being in California: Visiting family and recording music
Quality of Slurpee: A+++++!!!!
Flavor: Mango
Location: Manteca, California

State #5: Nevada. 11/22/2015

During Thanksgiving holiday while visiting family in Calfornia, I had the chance to get a slurpee in California.. so, like the smart person I am, I drove all the way to Nevada instead.  Really, I went to Nevada with my brother to attend a D-League basketball game between the Reno Big Horns and the Santa Cruz Warriors, and got a slurpee while in Reno, since I know I'll have plenty of opportunities in the future to get one in California.  (That's where I'm from!)

The game was fun, and the slurpee was bomb.  I got it at:

3085 S. Virginia Street
Reno, Nevada 89502




Reason for being in Nevada: Reno Big Horns vs. Santa Cruz Warriors basketball game
Quality of Slurpee: excellent
Flavor: Coke + Cherry
Location: Reno, Nevada

State #4: Texas. 08/02/2015

The San Francisco Giants came to Arlington in 2015 to face the Texas Rangers, and you know what that means... I'm off to Texas to see the Giants!  And on the way, I decided to stop at a 7-11 and grab another slurpee to knock off the second largest state in the country, Texas!

The Giants lost a close one to Texas, and this was Mike Leake's first appearance as a Giant.. he did okay during his time in San Francisco but ended up going to the Cardinals during the off-season.

The delicious slurpee I had in Texas was purchased at:

1700 William D Tate Ave
Grapevine, TX 76051






Reason for being in Texas: SF Giants vs. Texas Rangers at Globe Life Park in Arlington, TX
Quality of Slurpee: Excellent
Flavor: Coke
Location: Grapevine, Texas
