DL: Old Starbucks Tour Footage & Stats

Here's some old Starbucks tour footage that got lost in the shuffle but is now being brought to the light. This is an adventure me and Damien Horne went on after the Starbucks show in St. Louis, MO. We met up with friends and were all set to go swimming after the show (we were very excited as this type of stuff never happens after shows...EVER!) But before we hit the midnight pool we knew we'd be hungry so we stopped at a local Wendy's for some grub. My friend goes first in the drive-thru and when she gets up to the speaker the guy yells, "HELLO THANK YOU FOR CHOOOOSING WENDYS HOW MAY I HELP YOU!!!!!" It is so loud we all jump!!!!!! I quickly get my camera as I pull up to the speaker b/c it is hilarious and I've got to get it on flim...roll
