“I think the kids were just as happy as I was, I remember putting my hands in the air screaming yes! when I won,” said Salazar.
It was a soda drinker’s dream come true.
Larry Salazar has been going to the Dr Pepper Museum since he was a kid, so winning a year supply of Dr Pepper couldn’t have been a greater surprise.
“I actually never win anything. But for some reason we were just feeling lucky that day,” he said.
Salazar entered his family into a drawing for Dr Pepper’s 33rd Birthday bash.
“My wife and I have four special needs kids and they like to go to look at everything yearly, so we go and make it a family event,” said Salazar.
Little did he know he would end up with 31 cases of his favorite drink on his door step.
But he says those 372 cans may only last him and his family a month.
“For a family of six I don’t think so, I'm thankful for what we’ve got, it’s a little mini jackpot for us as much as we drink it, so we’ll take what we’ve got,” said Salazar.
Salazar says it’s very special that he gets to share his and his wife’s love for Dr Pepper with his children, especially since it was born and raised in Waco.
