Part 3: General Store

During our interviews in an effort to ‘work through’ events that day, we discussed the General Store where, it sounds like, they were met with both hostility and compassion, as well as various forms of sugar. If their memories were tampered with, it was done with remarkable precision and respect for this portion of the day. If their memories were replaced, I suspect either the Dairy Council working in conjunction with the Frozen Dairy Council, or aliens.

The store had signs with regulations about everything. One of them required us to remove our shoes before entering. Once inside we soft-walked around until one of us discovered the It’s-It ice cream sandwiches. – Hahn Rossman

I was having such a good day that I didn’t care when the motorcycle gang member grunted to grab my attention before pointing with his boot in the direction of sign that read – ‘No Leaning Bikes On The Building’. Normally that kind of aggressive redneck thing would bother me. Later and once inside, my It’s-It ice cream sandwich was the second best thing I’ve ever put in mouth. – Aaron Erbeck

It was like a period correct dry-goods store from the Wild West, only with ice cream sandwiches, Levi’s and margaritas. – Greg Johnson

I sat at the bar in my socks eating an ice cream sandwich and drinking a cold beer. – Cole Maness

It’s-it! – Ryan Thomson

“That place was like a freshly stocked time warp.” – Aaron Erbeck
