Ten others in the nation, but the Dallas location is the only one in Texas.

I really want to get my hands on a can of Buzz just to save it as a collectors item, I wonder how much these things will go for on Ebay

"I know it's a stereotype, but it doesn't bother me. Everybody knows it's a joke," Assandas said. "I'm a big Simpsons fan myself, and maybe subconsciously it even inspired me to become a 7-Eleven owner."

But they won't find Duff beer, the brand chugged by Homer Simpson. The movie will be rated PG-13, and selling a Simpson-themed beer "didn't seem to fit," said Rita Bargerhuff, a 7-Eleven marketing executive. "That was a tough call, but we want to make sure it's considered good, responsible fun."

:rolleyes

They really missed out on some big bucks by not making Duff Beer.

7-11 is doing that to all the stores in the nation to hype up the new Simspons movie.

They're only doing it to ten stores - one in each specified market. That 7-11/ Kwik-E-Mart in U.P. was jam-packed this morning, Spurm.

I'm a little surprised they didn't do one in Albuquerque since ABQ already has the triple-A baseball Isotopes. There's a 7-11 within walking distance of the stadium.

Yeah, I read the article wrong. They'll change 12 stores into Kwik-E-Marts and the rest of the nation's 7-11's will sell Buzz Cola, Slushies and all that other shit.

I'm heading to the Dallas one when I find out exactly where it is. Shouldn't be a long drive regardless.

Anyway: for those interested, one of my favorite sites has good pictures and text over the Kwik-E-Mart in New York:

Looks like there's two out here:
Los Angeles and Burbank.
(haven't seen either one yet).
