The Big Gay Ice Cream Truck Returns Next Tuesday

Rebecca Marx

Behold, the Bea Arthur.

In case today's weather and the plans of various restaurants to spawn outdoor seating didn't convince you, here's yet more evidence that spring finally seems to be upon us: According to its Twitter feed, the Big Gay Ice Cream Truck is returning to the streets next Tuesday, May 3. Per the truck's blog, there's no firm start time yet, but soft-serve freaks can whet their appetites the night before by tuning in to hear Doug Quint's guest stint on Sirius XM's OUTQ Radio. And if that's not enough, Quint and his large homosexual ice cream will also be appearing at Dumbo's Lucky Rice Night Market the next day. Salty Pimps, Bea Arthurs, and expanding waistlines, ahoy!
