I remember that well. My family was driving down South to visit relatives in Georgia in April of 1985 and we decided to drive through Philadelphia as we’d never seen it. I remembered all the row houses in the city so I was able to picture it when it happened a few weeks later.

Oddly, my cousin was a chemist at Coca-Cola HQ in Atlanta so that same trip we took a little tour and a week later, the formula change was announced. Quite a trip.

These poor people crawled so Teacake could run. Or troll DL, rather.
