Sonic Etiquette

Let’s talk Sonic Etiquette.

Sonic is a way of life here in Oklahoma. It started here, it’s everywhere here (malls, airport, every street corner…), and you may have your redneck card pulled if you don’t have an empty sonic cup rolling around your truck in these parts.

Rule 1.

Now that most Sonics now have a drive through (they didn’t always). THE DRIVE THROUGH IS FOR DRINKS ONLY.

Let me repeat that.

THE DRIVE THROUGH IS FOR DRINKS ONLY. If you are purchasing food – PULL INTO A STALL.

This rule applies at all times, but most especially during Happy Hour (when drinks are ½ price). The 30 people who are only ordering drinks behind you, while you are holding up the line waiting for your breakfast toaster to be toasted are calling you bad names.

Rule 2.

If your kid is having the tantrum of all tantrums and screaming so loudly that my kids, 2 cars behind you, BEG me to roll my windows up – YOUR KID DOES NOT NEED A SLUSH. They need a time out or a nap. Roll you window up, pull out of the drive thru, and take them home..

All of the other 400 people at Sonic during Happy Hour will THANK YOU for your participation.
