May 2005, Dutch Bros opened a new location on the east side of Bend.

|
And THE PEAK 104.1 and LAZER 96-5 were on hand all day to help them with their Grand Opening.
Enlarge |
|
Pictured here are THE PEAK 104.1’S Becky Broderick and Livin’ Large Larry with Dave Morris and Luke Norby of Dutch Bros.
Enlarge |
|
Dutch Bros had signage everywhere – even a Dutch Bros. van!

Dutch Bros. balloons

|
Dutch Bros stickers
Enlarge |
|
And Dutch Bros pants – oh Larry.
Enlarge |
|
Dutch Bros even had coffee available at Napa next door. They were everywhere!
Enlarge |
|
And we were there all day as well.
Enlarge |
|
THE PEAK 104.1’s Livin’ Large Larry and Becky Broderick resorted to climbing on vehicles to get attention.
Enlarge |
|
Apparently climbing on a van wasn’t cool enough, so they upgraded to large trucks.
Enlarge |
|
Becky Broderick of THE PEAK 104.1 is a real sucker for animals, especially dogs.
Enlarge |
|
When there weren’t any more dogs to interview, Livin’ Large and Becky moved on to real people!
Enlarge |
|
They even interviewed the Dutch Bros. staff
Enlarge |
|
Luke Norby of Dutch Bros. is a real crack up
Enlarge |
|
Apparently we weren’t the only ones covering the news of the Grand Opening
Enlarge |
|

And Livin’ Large hammed it up as well. Pictured from left to right: Dave Morris and Luke Norby of Dutch Bros. and Livin’ Large Larry of THE PEAK 104.1
Enlarge |
|
It was just laughs all around
Enlarge |
|
Look at that line of cars – now that is a lot of people
Enlarge |
|
So many people we had to help set up construction cones!
Enlarge |
|
People sure are willing to be patient for a free cup of coffee!
Enlarge |
|
I wonder how long these cars waited in line until reaching the window.
Enlarge |
|
Wait or not, these girls knew it was worth it.
Enlarge |
|
This couple actually showed up to try and win the Harleys, but decided that free Dutch Bros. coffee as a consolation prize was good enough for them
Enlarge |
|
And cars were packed to the gills with people wanting free coffee.
Enlarge |
|
This woman opted not to drive, but walked right up to the window for her morning dose of caffeine.
Enlarge |
|
It was all about being Dutch
Enlarge |
|
Let’s not forget that all that free coffee required a lot of hard work.
Enlarge |
|
Too bad Livin’ Large was trying to steal their tips!
Enlarge |
|
Even with those long lines, they kept smiling.
Enlarge |
|
Although this guys seems exhausted.
Enlarge |
|
LAZER 96-5’s Piper Phynnie was also on hand to broadcast live from the event during her Afternoon Show
Enlarge |
|
Apparently Dave Clemens thought Piper was stealing the thunder from his Afternoon Show on THE PEAK 14.1, so he came out to the event as well.
Enlarge |
|
And then he tried to shut Piper down!
Enlarge |
|
But ultimately Piper prevailed and won the adoration of the Dutch Bros. staff for doing such a great job.
Enlarge |
|
She even made nice with Bobby Grover, owner of Dutch Bros.
Enlarge |
|
And now Dutch Bros. is her coffee of choice.
Enlarge |
|
Apparently it is also Porter the Dog’s beverage of choice.
Enlarge |
|
In fact, Porter liked their coffee so much that she decided to join the team.
