You have three-ish weeks to stock up

Fuck the government.  The state has no right to say what we can and can't drink.

Caffeinated Alcoholic drinks are so fucking stupid to drink. People get alcohol poisoning from them all the time because they dont realize how drunk they are because they stay high energy from the caffeine. If you want to take that risk I guess its yours to take and its lame that they are banning the, but I would never fuck with that stuff.

i guess if you need to get drunk fast just chug one? But I heard they taste horrible. I could get a bottle of run for 10 bucks.


Omg it's 5 beers and it's only 3 something. I can get 8 keystones for 4. And I'd rather drink some schwill beer than tussin

Why the fuck would you drink this shit in the first place?

I've only had one and it was kinda good. Watermelon is nice. But then I started tripping a shit and haven't had one since.

well they said four loko will be banned, they have another dirnk called four maxed, the citrus flavor tastes literally like redbull, so they taste better than lokos. The other difference is they r 16oz cans 10% alc, perfect to pregame with. Here is a pic i snapped of them Click for larger image

haha perfect!

yeah remember sparks? or however it was spelt? Same thing, it got banned I think? The only thing with 4loko is deaths have been directly caused by them, mainly because people drink so much without realizing how much alcohol is in them......

That sounds pretty good actually. So it's like drinking 2 or 3 beers and an energy drink.

I like the sound of that. If it doesn't taste like shit I'd consider picking it up on the way to a party. Just had no will to buy a four loko after the shitty things I heard about them

sparks is still around, i saw them next to the lokos last night at the liq store, there is also Joose, which is real similar to a loko, just doesnt have the 600 cals that lokos have with them

Whats the alc percentage though?


Some states are weird. I remember in jersey I drove to 4 gas stations, nobody had beer, nobody would help me, went to shop right no beer. At least they told me to go to the liquor store. Crazy that you can't buy beer at a gas station. By the time I bought my 30 rack I was lost.

depends on the state with the alc content in joose's ive seen 8% and 12% before, nobody realizes that lokos arent new, when my friends went to virginia for school, i went to visit them their freshman year 2 years ago, we were drinking lokos then, they know how to party at james madison

yeah it kinda sucks, since ive grown up here it doesnt bother me, but when i went to school in PA and went to the liq store i was so confued as to why there was no beer there, and then i was told i had to go to a beer store, it was annoying as fuck to have to go to two separate stores

Yeah that doesn't make any sense. I knew about beer stores, but I thought you could still get beer at a liquor store for some reason. Luckily we bought all our booze Before we left jersey for the pa show.

i love how it say they're doing it for the "children" even though its an alcoholic beverage.

even though i would prob never drink that shit in my life the government banning it is just wrong.
