We're all familiar with energy drinks, from Red Bull (http://www.redbull.com/#page=ProductPage) to SoBe (http://www.sobebev.com/gateway_flash.html), Rockstar (http://www.rockstar69.com/products.html), and the original, Jolt (http://www.joltenergy.com/Fridge/tabid/80/Default.aspx) ;)
What they all have in common is an appeal to the outsider, the subversive. So, what's a young conservative supposed to do? Enter Ol' Glory (http://www.olglory.com/products.htm), which even has the Pledge of Allegiance on the can! And the phrase "Under God" in all caps! LOL!
Would you drink it?

I'd hate be in charge of the European marketing division.

There is one around here called Cocaine......that's nice. :(

big freaking banner on the way to take my kids to the park

"Cocaine sold here! Try it today!"

No way. Middle East would be a doss. Instead of 'energy drink', market it as 'target practice'.

I'm quite addicted to energy drinks, so finding a tasty cheap brand would be nice.

What's so wrong about the brand being called "Cocaine"? It actually makes sense that they would name their product that, to me at least. And I'd think there'd be a picture of the product on the banner, yes?

I've been looking for that drink for qiute a while with no luck.. send me a can of it? *puppy eyes*

I'm not allowed energy drinks anymore. They make me hyper. I was once in a very patronising debrief. I got quite miserable and insulted and eventually stormed out. I was found close by on the National gallery side of Trafalgar square. Had a bit of chat with the person who found me and agreed to come back. On the way back she brought me the energy drink because she fought it might lift my spirits.
...
I subsequently got hyper, created havoc and lots of fun for the participants and ruffled the feathers of the extremely camp, latino head facilitator and others. :)

The question is, will my "Jesus Juice"-brand energy drink outsell it?

Or the Middle Eastern one.

The average person in the middle east likes America. At least what I have found from my travels. Europeans are the ones that are the most "anti-American".

Is it made with genuine holy water?

Yeeeeeeeeeah.

Anyway... wtf?

I don't see how this only goes to conservative. While they are generally more patriotic than liberals, I have met plenty of liberals who are proud of America.

I don't think this would do well outside the USA period.

To be honest I'm not sure that it would well even in the US.

Depends on if it's pre-Perestoika vodka :p

You should contact them! Sounds right up their alley ;)

According to the poll so far, 8 people would :eek:
I don't see how this only goes to conservative. While they are generally more patriotic than liberals, I have met plenty of liberals who are proud of America.
Proud to be American? Yep, I'm one :) Obsessive about "Under God" in the Pledge? Not so much :rolleyes:

I think they're covered by this (http://www.monsterenergy.com/product/) :D

They're in Wal*Mart . . . could be big!

We need to make a new brand. A brand for the true conservative.

One place you definitely couldn't sell this stuff (or any other energy drink) is Israel - things like Red Bull are actually illegal there, so I'm told.

the banner specifically annoys me because it's not like the brand's banner, and it doesn't say anything about it being an energy drink, it just says that you can buy cocaine there, and that you should try it......

I saw this stuff at Walmart this morning! Hey, for a dollar, it's a good buzz. And I'm enough of a perv that I think the can is a HOOT~! :D
They also had some stuff called "Rip" that was only a dollar. Gotta try that next ;)

Ah.

See, I was totally picturing a banner that had the product shown.

You're starting to make sense to me again. *nods*

nope, it's just a white vinyl banner with big black letters.
