Jeremy – TaB Hall of Fame member!

Here is some background information on Jeremy, our newest TaB Hall of Fame member… He is 21 years old, lives in Omaha, Nebraska, and attends school at the University of Nebraska at Omaha for Secondary Education (his goal is to get certified in English and Journalism). He works at a Walgreen’s that carries TaB (lucky lucky lucky!!!) — and the TaB is also really well stocked! Jeremy also works at a Theatre that shows Art Films.

ILoveTaB.com: When did you start drinking TaB? What were you doing? In college, etc?

Jeremy: I started drinking TaB in January of this year, I found it in a 12 pack in South Carolina in a very run down filling station’s back room, I didn’t buy any but was surprised to find it was still being made. When I got back to Omaha I found it mentioned on the Save Surge website and did some research, I loved the can design and it had an interesting back story, but didn’t seek it out. It wasn’t until I went to the grocery store for frozen pizza and soda that I found my first six pack, and to be quite honest I hated it. It sat in my fridge and I ended up drinking another and it had grown on me, before that six pack was done I bought out the grocery store’s stock. (Glad you stuck with it Jeremy 🙂 )

Lolly Yocum will travel to the ends of the earth in search of an endangered species: her beloved TaB soda.

The Lansdale, Pa., doll maker has a summer house in Little Egg Harbor Township, but she spends more time traveling the Garden State Parkway trolling for soft drinks than enjoying the summer sun.

“During the summer months, I go on TaB-buying journeys that take me from Manahawkin to Atlantic City looking for my beloved drink,� Yocum said. “No other drink can compare.�
