The B-52s Are Still Around-- Part 5: Pop Culture

No other plane in the U.S. arsenal has been around as long. Other more technologically advanced have come and gone, but the relatively low-tech B-52 has remained.

The bomber has also found its way into pop culture. There is a Kahlua-infused cocktail (never had one and gives new meaning to "Gettin' Bombed"), a beehive hairdo for women in the 1960s and a New Wave rock band out of Athens, Georgia, the B-52s, and their "Rock Lobster" and "Love Shack."
