Believe it or not, Bazooka Joe is 60 years old! Doesn’t look a day over 12 if you ask me. I still remember going to the 7-11 on the corner when I was a kid and buying loose, single sticks of Bazooka Joe gum (off the bottom candy rack) for 5 cents each.

And get off my lawn while you’re at it!

To celebrate the anniversary, the brand is getting a bit of a makeover. Topps (Bazooka’s parent company) has enlisted the aid of four stellar illustrators who will design new looks for Bazooka Joe: Benjamin Balistreri (How to Train Your Dragon), Robert Lilly (Nickelodeon Animation Studios), Ben Reynolds (mobile Games for Ghostbusters and Monster Pet Shop), and Victor Instrasomnbat (Clockwork Animation).

This “search for a new look” is also accompanied by a national digital and social campaign. Learn more about Bazooka gum and the new look by visiting Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or BazookaJoe.com.

And yes, there’s still a fun surprise wrapped around every stick of gum.

The fine people at Bazooka have also made available a gum prize pack for The Roarbots readers! Packs are a combo of original and blue razz flavors.

Simply enter using the widget below, and some gum might be on its way to you soon! Thanks and good luck!

This giveaway is now over. Thanks for entering!
