We all know the Jingle "I scream, You scream, We all scream for Ice Cream". Well here at the Tuttle Ice Cream festival, the only screaming you may be doing is the epic brain freeze you will get by eating so much ice cream. The Ice cream is generously provided by Oklahoma owned company Braums. And it comes in other flavors besides chocolate and Vanilla. I personally got Birthday cake and Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough. Of course Ice cream isnt the only theme going on. New this year is a 5k fun run called "Reagans Run" which supports the Tuttle animal shelter. At the end of this post I will be showing you one of the dogs you can give a loving home too.
Then there is the Car Show. If you are a fan of vintage cars you have to check it out. My personal favorite was this fully restored Auburn Speedster. Auburn was a Car manufacture company in the early 1900's. Unfortunately, because the cars were so stinking expensive and the Great Depression hit, the company went out of business for good.
As the day goes on, a new show comes in. First off is the Ice Cream Eating contest....and you thought your head hurt. Imagine a bunch of people trying to cram down as much ice cold ice cream as they can in 5 minutes. The winner last year crammed down a head splitting 9 cups of ice cream.
Then of course there is the Parade down main street. Everything from Local companies to the Reigning Ice Cream princess of last year, throwing candy down to the kids. Oh and those vintage cars from earlier? ya they are in the parade too. As well as vintage tractors.
Last but not least is the Ice Cream Princess Pageant. Some lucky girl will win the hearts of ice cream lovers and get the crown....at least until next year. And of course what festival wouldn't be complete without vendors selling goods and rides. Although there are no rides like there was in Previous festival posts, There are plenty of inflatables for the kids. The Ice cream Festival is just like any small town festival in that its a place where people can come together, have fun, and enjoy some ice cream all at the same time.
