Pour one out: The inventor of the red Solo cup has died

(CNN) 2016 is still not done. Before we lost George Michael, Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds this week, we lost someone who’s probably had just as big an impact on our lives, though you’ve never heard of him:

Robert Leo Hulseman.

He’s the man who invented the red Solo cup, staple at every party ever. He died last week at age 84.

And now this… 😞
