      Notable Events with Stanley in the recent past:

      Stanley does the “limited release” (often seen in the fashion industry, think Supreme) marketing thing, creating a bit of hype around their cups.

      A woman in TikTok posted a video of how her car burned down, but her Stanley cup survived and there was still ice in it. This video goes viral and the CEO of Stanley does something for the lady. I can’t remember what exactly but I think he bought her a car?

      The Target × Stanley collaboration results in fistfights at retail locations over the limited edition colorway.

      Since we’re in that late-stage of capitalism, Stanley cups are a hot commodity for resellers and scalpers. Generally, resellers and scalpers try to buy their goods to resell but one lady decided to skip that whole step and just steal like $2000 USD (retail) of Stanley cups.
