OC’s Hottest Ice Cream Truck
07.08.10
Remember when an ice cream truck could make your day, especially in the summer? The hokey music heralding its arrival from blocks away. The chocolate-covered ice cream bars, Big Sticks and Bomb Pops. The drivers who your mom kept a wary eye on.
Well, ice cream trucks are back, at least now that the OC Fair has its own. Starting Saturday, the truck will be giving out free ice cream bars, OC Fair treats and Pepsi throughout Orange County. If you need up-to-the-minute details, just follow @ocfair on Twitter and OC-Fair on Facebook, but here’s a cheat sheet (that could change).
