A whimsical journey across the United States with a Dr Pepper can featuring Anna Trundle, a 2012 recipient of a scholarship in the Dr Pepper Tuition Giveaway. Along the way, we hope to celebrate, educate, and mildly entertain.

On a Texas-sized video board, the fourth largest of its kind in the world, Anna and Dr Pepper stand really, really tall as fans look on in amazement.
The video screen measures 75-feet tall and 160 feet wide -- stretching from one 20-yard line to the other. By our estimate, the Anna Can is about 25 feet tall on the screen at left. The video board, nicknamed the Jerrytron for Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, is suspended 90-feet above the playing field, weighs 1.2 million pounds and contains (get this) 30 million light bulbs.
In the past three months we have hung out in some pretty cool places across America , but, folks, the Anna Can will never get bigger than this.
