This was for their TV commericials. 7UP really went psychedelic and began calling themselves "the uncola." The best of their ads of this era featured as song called "We see the light." They even sold flicker lights in a 7UP can holder.<br /><br />BTW - If you do the restaurant post, you could mention George Lyndsey's Steakhouse. There was one here in Springfield Mo. It is still in business all though it has been called George's Restaurant since the 70s. Not sure when Goober sold his interest in the franchise.
