The day is focusing on franchise customers. In their various flavors, the chain sells discounts and often free Slurpees. The icy cold beverage is a popular summer drink since July is known for its summer heat. The icy cold beverage is a common choice for cooling all summer long.
In 1966, the Slurpee debuted. 7-Eleven modified the Knedlik machine, which was used to make the Icee, and then branded and licensed the frozen drink under the name Slurpee while the machine still existed. Bob Stanford, a marketing executive, gave the sweet, icy drink the name for the sound it makes when it is sucked through a straw.
The term brain freeze existed before 7-Eleven was introduced in 1991 to replace ice cream headaches or the more technical cold stimulus headache. Brain freeze was often used as a sports term in 1990 to refer to athletes who failed on the track. It also extended to the side effects of drugs, particularly if they affected our mental stability.. However, sports columnists repurposed the word immediately after 7-Eleven allegedly redefined the word, but sports columnists quickly repurposed the term to their advantage. When they made an error, Athletes' brain freeze occurred, but columnists argued that the player must have had a Slurpee before playing the game.
