Did you know Elvis wasn’t naturally the jet-black-haired icon we remember? He was a sandy blonde, but darkened his hair with shoe polish to make his blue eyes even more striking under the stage lights.
Or, did you know that Babe Ruth kept cool during hot summer games by tucking a cabbage leaf under his cap?
And did you know the beloved soda fountain began as part pharmacy? Early sodas were often mixed with aspirin or other remedies to cure hangovers!
