While I'm surprised that it took so long, all this is going to do is make people go back to mixing their drinks with Red Bull.

Looks like I have a week left to stock up.

that's how far out of the loop I am... didn't even know those drinks existed. What happened to good old fashioned beer or mixed drinks?? they work just fine

Just wait untill WA implements Prohibition. Whats next? A kids gets hurt from a knife in a kitchen so then all knives will be banned? Someone gets killed in a car accident, so now we ban all cars.
This fucking state is so stupid. Why wont they let nature weed out the stupid ones?

[Appleseed]

lol 9 stupid college students drink too much at their own fault.. now the whole state takes the outcome..whey don't they ban skateboard since college students keeps breaking their arms and legs when use it :dance: in fact today i saw a guy on my campus fall off 6 stairs smash his own face on the ground when he try to do a "cool" move..

And wasn't all the kids under age? Where they get the drinks? :think:

They have already been banned in Michigan and now New York, Oregon, and Oklahoma are ready to do it too.

Actually the liquor stores don't sell these types of drinks. They are under the percentage of alcohol (12% vs. 15%) for the requirement. Convenience stores and even regular grocery stores (Albertsons, Safeway) sell these.

Most likely they got it from a friend who is over 21. I used to always get older people to get liquor for us when I was under age.

I see a lot of DRUNK kids (over 21 but punks to me) walking around the strip with Four Loco cans in their hands. I even had a bachelor party ask me to stop at an am-pm to buy 8 Four Locos. I drank one before bowling and by the 3rd game i was FUCKED UP. Of course i had about 8 beers also. I agree with Mongo on this one, we cannot start banning everything because of stupid peeps. Natural selection will take care of them.

AHAHAHA ppl are retarded. Caffeine opens your blood cells which help you absorb vitamins and medicine better but in our case you absorb alcohol better. It's like when ppl put 40% above alcohol into dry ice and smoke it. It gets you fucked but you do not need much because of the fact that it enters your bloodstream almost immediately through your lungs, so it takes less to get alcohol poisoning.

So my recommendation... DON'T BE A FUCKING NOOB BITCH

So I guess they will just have to go back to mixing redbull and vodka. I don't see any difference than that and a can you can buy from a store. They will get the same effect from redbull and vodka compared to 4loco.
