The Real Reason Four Loko Was Banned 

I came here to post just that.

idk what drink you had, but original four loko didn't cause any more of a reaction in my cardiovascular system than a typical energy drink. Though, I wasn't one of the morons who drank several of the things in a sitting...

must have a medical problem with stimulates because like Tamarocker88 says it doesn't have anymore reaction to the cardiovascular system than any typical energy drink.

@cker88 that is true. If it caused issues after just one you ether have a medical problem which means you shouldn't be putting a stimulate in your system or drinking multiple drinks in one setting like something STUPID. The problem with putting any stimulate in an alcoholic drink is it masks the fact you are drunk so you more likely to drink more and get VERY drunk than you normally will which the video has said.

And 80% of the ppl drinkin them are hittin the slopes doin them lines on top of it

It was the best because the new formula sucks balls. I rather drink a energy drink, beer and my favorite cocktail a martini hey cost more thia way but ao worth it..

Sparks tasted horrible but 4loko tasted so much better thanks to their various flavors. Now if you want to experience a energy boost cocktails drink a red headed slut ask your bar tender to make it for you and its made with red bull & jagermeister so tasty..

And the "Loko" part is horniness

Sounds like a set of gods I could worship, or the set of gods I do worship 🤔

The original wasn't no joke.

That’s why you drink another one in the morning after, to not feel the grief and regret. And restart the whole process all over again 🤙🏻

Great name, brilliant!

Nice. You were typing this from the afterlife, I assume? Because that sounds almost lethal.

"The 9's" is perfectly fine. You're saying way too much.

I call it "9 nights at the clink"

Me and my friends call it a 9 Loko lmfaoo

Booze cruising to alchovallhala

When I hear road beer, I think of unopened beer that find on the side of the road.

A blessing in disguise

Almost on the same boat, except I was 19, fresh outta high school. That year was a blur, but I remember handcuffs and laughing at a cop after he chewed us out due to a BB shotgun in the trunk of my friends car. Same with the sweet embrace of a floor. Now, I work in helping with mental illness and drug recovery. Four Loko was toxic but made for some great times.

Lightweights 💀🏥🚑

@@T--jg6rz nah man, back then I could down a whole fifth of Evan Williams and still keep goin. Four Loko just hit different. Besides, no one should be proud to be a heavyweight drinker.

I can save you

Man what year was that

I still have one on my shelf. I'm hoping some old frat dude will buy it as an antique to fund my retirement.

​@@rubiconnnno wayyy lol, that is a relic if it's truly the original. That shit was nasty but did the job lol

Here here. But mid-late teens for me lol.

I recall not drinking for a couple months around the same age when I first heard of them. I was away from home for the time. I came back, had two of those bad boys at my normal pace and the DAY was over. Lol

I first tried it at the Art Institute Houston in July of 2004. They had samples of it as it was being Test Marketed. I remember(At 21 I wasn't much of serious drinker) it tasting like A cross between B&J and Rockstar. It wasn't pleasant. It had a Bitter Berry Taste to it.

P-wing!!! Haven't seen one of those in years!!!

I use to drink it with fruit punch Jarritos at work i also hated the taste but i liked the kick it give you with just one can after two you were obliterated 😅

yes it was. I am glad I partied through that time

@@shorepolishing4664 and survived to tell lol

I have no recollection of it so I’ll take your word for it

I died and brought back to life

Legendary yes lol idk if in a good way tho

Good for you 👌

2009 was a legendary year.

I mean, loads of college kids still party hard and graduate on time, but yes 😂

Bro it was so bad. Honestly I'm glad it's gone, but also glad I went thru it lol

But imagine if it was on fire though and mixed in with cough syrup

Homer*

Flaming Moe with years before these freaking kids started abusing cough syrup crazy

Hey it's a flaming homer put some respect on it 😂

Jus add cough syurp now you have the moe

Ya, that line sums it up.

Iono if you tryna be funny but hope you get the help you need. No one should feel like they have to down 4lokos to go to sleep. Best wishes fr

Its not moonshine?

There is a Weird History Food video called Stories From The Torrid History Of Absinthe

They came out in 2004. I was a 21 year old enrolled at Art Institute at the time. They had samples of it there in Plastic Solo Cups with Ice.

Respect why? These are the dumbfucks that don't want people to make their own decisions in life and have the government do it for them.

What's to respect? The point he made by drinking two cans back to back is that it's a bad idea to slam the equivalent of 6-8 drinks in a short period. That should be obvious to most anyone and isn't a problem specific to FourLoko. High schools across the country have been teaching students about alcohol serving sizes for decades. "one drink" is a 4 oz glass of wine, a standard 12oz 5-6% beer, or a shot of hard liquor. It is extremely common for a single mixed drink to be the equivalent of 3-4 drinks. Four loko clearly has WAY more than just one drink in it considering the volume of the can alone. It was clearly labeled to indicate how much caffeine and alcohol was in it. If someone chose to drink multiple cans in a short time, thus taking in the equivalent of SEVERAL drinks, it's on them. No different than someone being allowed to order multiple long island iced teas back to back at a bar or slamming red bull & vodka.

I liked beer coffee better as a concept on The Drew Carey Show.

it was exclusively because of college kids. you dont hear of them getting fucked up on mr blacks coffee liquor

Damn.... reading that just revived a very dead brain cell. Spark bombs and Malibu. Highschool parties 🥴

Mad dogs, and Cisco 4 locos for breakfast

It’s not necessarily that but the amount of caffeine in said drinks. Redbull (12oz) has 3 times the amount of caffeine compared to Coca Cola(12oz).

Not realizing how drunk you are due to caffeine can be fatal. Worked at hospital icu near a major uni😢

Yeah thats...not the same thing

So you're complaining that they're making the restaurant and the road more safe? Americans are something else I swear...

@@onerandomguy4832 the drinks and alcoholics are indeed something else

divisive*?

It wasn’t bad

See, thanks to the Four Loko, you didn't remember any of those incidents.

Sounds like bad parenting, then the drink.

FACTS

Are they different?

Miller and Coors merged back in 2005.

What kind of nurse are you Ben?

@@sarahkatie7497 A travel nurse.

That's a good watch!

@@anthonylocklear6694 Good to know! The first episode was awesome!

I second that.

Godspeed.

It tastes like the Rockstar energy drink, to me.
