Faygo Friday #2


















This week's Faygo flavor is Mandarin orange.

At a large botanical garden near where I work, there is a section with flora and fauna of Japan. Once a year they have a Japanese Festival where traditional Japanese music is played along with other Asian goings on.  What does this have to do with this can?  The bridge on the can makes me think of the bridge at the botanical garden that leads to the Japanese Island.  And it was on that bridge that I proposed to my wife many years ago.  We visited the real bridge earlier this week for the first time since the 1999 proposal.

Memorial Day 2013
Meanwhile, the two geisha on the can are serving up a basket full of delicious looking oranges.  Why don't they make scratch-n-sniff cans?

The can is from 1977 when Faygo was celebrating its 70th anniversary.

Come back next Friday for the next Faygo...
