Hubba Bubba Gum memories... When I was a kid (back in the 80's), my family would attend a big
family reunion every summer at a park by my grandma's house.
Sometime in the hot afternoon, there would be races and other
contests to entertain the children and finally, the contest to top
them all...bubble blowing.
My grandma would crack open an entire box of Hubba Bubba (since
we all knew it was the best for blowing bubbles) and all the kids
would fight over the packs of gum inside, until we all had about
three pieces crammed into our tiny mouths.
After about five minutes of chewing, we'd all get a few tries to
blow the biggest bubble we could and the winner would get some sort
of prize (usually more gum). One of the big kids always won it, but
the little ones were all happy to have gotten a few pieces of free
gum. ~ Tyler from Utah |
