In the Forrest Gump film, Forrest Gump is honored on the Collegiate All-American Football Team in 1963. He goes to Washington, D.C. to be presented an award by President John F. Kennedy. While there, he estimates that he drinks 15 Dr. Peppers (15 bottles may be counted on the table), and when he speaks to the President, all he can think to say is "I got to pee".
No such event occurs in the novel, however a similar event occurs when Forrest is selected for the All State Football award.
