Shovel Your Eegee's Into These Awesome Cups

You order an eegee's special order. You wait the required four days to go pick it up and there you have it. A giant styrofoam cube full of you favorite eegee's flavor. It’s buckled in tight, you drive it home and set that sweet baby on the counter. 

Now, what do you do? Eat it of course. But what do you eat it in when it's not socially acceptable to just eat it out of the cube, with your bare hands. 

We've pulled some of the best mugs you could possibly have to shovel eegee's into. All items are for sale on eBay, so hurry over there and get them before someone else buys them!

Tucson.com 12 Days of Christmas

Tucson.com has listed out the 12 Days of Christmas that can only be done in Tucson. Open your mouths and insert food. 

The local site has devised a list of all the favorite food places you can only get here in Tucson, AZ! We might be a bit biased, but we know what our favorite Tucson restaurant on the list is. It should be yours too. Eat up Tucson and check out which of your favorite Tucson places to eat made the list. 

First, though, what would the list be without eegee's? Close to the bottom of the list, on the 10th day of Christmas, Tucson.com is recommending you head on over to eegee's for one of our deliciously cold fresh frozen fruit drinks. Though, let's be honest, one of our fresh frozen fruit drinks would go well with any of those places on the list. Sneak it in your purse or man bag, whatever you choose to carry this season. 

For December, eegee’s is boasting the Holly Berry flavor as the Flavor of the Month. You can have this by itself, as a half and half or go all out suicide style. Also, shove a tasty Sausage N’ Peppers in your face. It will help the drink go down. 




Back on topic, here are the 12 places that made the list are: 
  1. Little Café Poca Cosa, 151 N. Stone Avenue.
  2. St. Mary’s Mexican Food, 1030 W. St. Mary’s Road, 884-1629 and 849 N. Anita Ave., 882-5280.

eegee's New Logo

Have you noticed the new logo on all your eegee's wrappers? Let us know what you think in the reactions below the post!

eegee's opened in 1971 with the following logo. You can still see this logo at some of the eegee's on their marquee signs around town. The logo experienced a bit of a change over the next few years.

via lynetteandreasen
A ribbon began to underline the eegee's wording and then a lightning bolt extended through the logo. This logo was the standard for years. You probably grew up with this logo.


via Tucson.com
Finally, a design firm located in Flagstaff, Arizona created the last known eegee's logo. The firm, We Are William, created a brand you will see in most of the local stores now. This is the logo most people have grown to love. It's simple and easy to recognize.

via Sign Tucson
As eegee's has opened their latest stores, we are beginning to see a new logo emerging. They've begun to drop the whole eegee's word and are opting to use just the E, G and S. It's new and different. Some say the change happened because people were having a hard time pronouncing the spelled out word. Others say it's to follow in the footsteps of McDonald's, Burger King and Dairy Queen who have reduced their names to initials (Ex: M, BK, DQ). For whatever the reason might be, we still love eegee's no matter what they look like.

It's what's on the inside of the bag, not the outside.
