Ode to the Arnold Palmer

I saw this commercial and almost stood up and started applauding. The delectable elixir that is made of sweetened iced tea and lemonade has been satisfying taste buds for ages now. Some call it the "half & half", "the Uptown"(at Gladys Knight's Chicken & Waffles), and a host of other names. But many down here in the South call it "The Arnold Palmer." It's amazing that despite him being one of the better golfers to ever play the sport, many people who know nothing about his accomplishments as an athlete call the drink by his name. It seems everyone drinks it and has a slightly different ratio of the two liquids that works best for them. If I watched him make the drink in person, I'd probably be dumbfounded in awe just like Stuart Scott and Scott Van Pelt were in the commercial, as silly as it sounds. So I salute u Mr. Palmer, u've blessed the world with ur contribution. LOL.
