What is your favorite ice cream–related story?
During the night, the soft serve machine goes on a stand-by cycle, so it keeps the mix cold but not frozen. We got broken into one time, and before we could get there, the police officer pulled down on the handle to get an ice cream cone, and the liquid sprayed all over him.
