Going to get ice cream with the family is no longer enough. Now you have to catch your own.

There is a new ice cream place that opened up in NYC where they make you catch your ice cream.

Is this fun, or just wasteful?  An ice cream place called Catch'N Ice Cream recently opened in New York.  And their gimmick is they throw you your order.

It comes as one big scoop they hurl across the room, and you're supposed to catch it in a bowl.  It opened last summer, but two videos are trending right now . . . one of people catching ice cream, and one of people dropping it.

If you drop your order, they give you a new scoop.  So it's just for fun.  A TikToker named Dylan Lemay opened it after he got a following online while working at Cold Stone Creamery.

Here is a video someone posted to TikTok showing how it's done.

Here are people dropping the ice cream.

This seems like a trend that should have stayed at cold stone. I am sorry but I think it is a waste of time and a waste of ice cream. I think if I went there I would continue to miss the ice cream, just so the person had to continue to remake my scoop.

Here is more on their story:

If this makes you want ice cream. Here is a great list for you!

Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf! Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
