Show Description

Shep takes a trip back home and describes how not much has changed and as he drives up the main street he spots "The Igloo", the site of the Great Ice Cream War. He tells the story of the Great Ice Cream War between "The Igloo" and Borden's Dairy back in Hammond during the late 30's. The two were right across the street from one another and one day a battle was fought driving the prices down from 12 cents a double dip to FREE.
