Floats are good, they are. But Root Beer is poison. I don't see how anyone could enjoy Diesel Coke. Pour some cough syrup in tonic water, it's much better. My first horrific encounter with root beer was in summer of '88. Shortly after entering the state of Michigan, I stopped at an A&W. Unfortunately, I trusted my grandfather to order for me and when he came back with a cup full of dark, carbonated drink, I assumed it was CocaCola or Pepsi. The rest is history and I'll never forget it.
ps. AM's name reminds of A&W and that picture makes me gag. leave me alone!!!
