    The founder may be gone, but some of the food in the 7/11 left behind is older.

    Shocker

    He died on 14/3
    14/2 = 7 and
    14 - 3 is 11…Oooooh how spooky.

      2023

      2+0+2+3 = 7
      2*2 + 0 + 3 = 7
      23/2 + 0 = 11 (close enough)

      • 23/2 + 0 = 11

        That's how they do integer division anyway

      The Mayans were right..

    • "He died last Friday from old age" so the 10th

      • +6

        10/3/23

        10-3 = 7
        10+3 - 2 = 11

        Oooh how spooky

    • +10

      He was born on 30/4
      3+0+4 = 7
      11 - The number of stores he owned after they opened their 11th store..

    did he walk into a 7/11 and try to buy a water and die when he seen the price? or did he die of dehydration because even he couldn't afford a water?

  • He wasn't the founder.

    He brought the franchise to Japan.

      It sounds like his company bought the franchise from the 7 Eleven Wikipedia excerpt. He might have grown it into the international chain, haven’t bothered reading further into this

      7-Eleven, Inc., stylized as 7-ELEVEn, is a multinational chain of retail convenience stores, headquartered in Dallas, Texas. The chain was founded in 1927 as an ice house storefront in Dallas. It was named Tote'm Stores between 1928 and 1946. After 70% of the company was acquired by an affiliate Ito-Yokado in 1991, it was reorganized as a wholly owned subsidiary of Seven & I Holdings.
