Cancel culture has gone too far. We need to protect these statues that preserve our history and culture.

Nah all Massachusetts based businesses should be canceled until the notch is rightfully returned to Connecticut.

don't stop there - lets reclaim the CT western reserve. Northern Ohio is our god given right.

Let's just shove our way through the entire country until we touch the Pacific.

Eww, as a proud Michigander-turned-Nutmeger, you don’t want the stink of Ohio anywhere near ya.

Yes, I've seen some older insurance maps that showed the Connecticut River Valley stretched all the way to Newport News, VA.

My brain isn't accepting this for several reasons, but if you look at a topo map of the east coast and squint, it kinda works

Does every /r/Connecticut thread just turn into an argument about the notch now? I’m not mad I’m just sayin

Bruins125 t1_jd4p5l8 wrote

No, but every thread that somehow relates to Massachusetts yes

Don't worry we already kicked CT out of New England. You can be a part of the Tri-State Area from this point on :P

Shhh, if you can keep a secret I'm a Medford raised masshole double agent assigned to live in Connecticut. Trying not to have my cover blown and fit in with the New Yorkers... and thwart this attempt to steal land from the glorious utopia of Massachusetts.

Free award to whoever finds out the ultimate disposition of this artifact. Trash pile, eBay, 100,000 Dunkin rewards points redemption?

I think SignPro in southington made it, it assume it's going back to them, maybe for rework?

It is!! I saw it off 84 heading home from work just the other day!!

Oh no why’d they take it

I think it's because it said "Dunkin' Donuts" and now it's just "Dunkin'"

I hope they replace it with a new cup.

I've been driving by signpro on 84 for work. And I've seen a giant cup in their building. Where it's going I have no idea

brownstone79 t1_jd337yc wrote

The promo video on their website shows a DD cup, so you’re probably right.

RakelDakel t1_jd5tegp wrote

The old hot cup was taken down, cleaned up, remade into an iced coffee with LED screens at the top and logo changed to DUNKIN. The Yard Goats stadium lettering was changed as well.

Choppinitup31 t1_jd33881 wrote

That's actually the new cup pictured there. Notice it only says "Dunkin". It's coming not going.

This is bad news for the economy

PhilipLiptonSchrute t1_jd39nw0 wrote

This happened weeks ago, no? I saw it sitting in Sign Pro's lot/garage some time ago. Is this the new version being brought to the stadium?

realbusabusa OP t1_jd3jg93 wrote

Pretty sure it is the old one being taken away

One of my students showed me the new one his dad's company made for the stadium. Unfortunately it will no longer release steam.

PsyrusTheGreat t1_jd4zyog wrote

NOO!!!!

Now what will gently steam when the Yard Goats hit a home run?

Ftheyankeei t1_jd2xv5h wrote

There was another one on the other side of the park this morning - my bet is that they’re replacing them - but it would be nice to get some advance heads up so I don’t have to take a detour in the morning because of a giant coffee cup

They made a new one. Saw it on a trailer at Sign Pros.

At least they'll save money on gas. America and now that semi run on Dunkin...

I just saw it on the trailer the other day at a sign shop right off 84 in Southington

I work across the street. Old cup was taken down. New cup installed. There is a new sign in the front as well.

It is legit a lot tastier than iced coffee though, at least when they're black I can't speak towards which one is better with cream and sugar

Great! I hope they have better coffee this season. That watery swill, and their pathetic donuts will not be missed.
