my favorite part was Farmington being rewarded for being the most hopped up on mtn dew per capita

Fun fact: In 1979, Pepsi Co. announced that Farmington,Minn., consumed more Mountain Dew per capita than any other community, and helped it launch an annual festival, Mountain Dew Days. After the corporate sponsorship dropped, the festival was known as Dew Days. (Star Tribune, Rachel Hutton, June 23 2025)
