I would've lost my mind as a kid if I asked for this and a HOT WHEELS lambo showed up. That's so cool

My parents got mister softee to just park his truck in front of the house for my birthday party one year and everyone could go up and get anything they wanted as often as they wanted. It felt so baller. My sister ended up having the same thing at her wedding many years later.

Never heard of mister softee. Just looked it up and now I'm kinda pissed. It looks so good and there isn't one even remotely close to me. This would have been a staple to my childhood.

We had a Mr Sofftee, in fact he was the high school English professor. My father was a state Trooper and also close friends with Mr Softee and nearly every summer day for years the ice cream man was parked in front of my house. All the kids came to my house at the end of the street and Iā€™m sure parents felt safe sending them. It was all fun and games until several years later Mr Softee was my AP English teacher.
