Red Bull Appreciation

Uranos · Post by **Uranos** » 31 May 2006 04:56

Ok so in response to the Mountain Dew thred i thought this should have its own

I love Red BUll and it hypes me up for footbag. I just had one and another one in the fridge.

Anyone else like it? I know Mr. O'Wheel does

looove red bull. Reminds me of Melbourne, I always have red bull when I'm shredding down there

Except I don't think it affects me much, in terms of energy. I just like the taste.

Who here's tried a jager bomb? soooo good.

i loovveee red bull...but i recently found a better alternative, full throttle. This shit hypes me up like crazy...i had one today and shred for like 3 hours, i felt like i was on speed

And i tried a jager bomb in aruba...those things fuck you up, and quick too!

i drink so much fucking coffee that i drink red bull simply for the taste. but i do enjoy them more at night than i do a cup of coffee.

Haha, I've never even tasted Red Bull although they do sell it everywhere here.

I don't even have any reason not to drink it - I just haven't.

Where's Jeremy?

I judge how successfull a day is based on how many red bulls I drink. 0 is a great day, 1 is good, 2 is average, 3+ is a complete lack of will power.

edit: this week i've only had 2 i think

I like the RockStar's and 24 Karat Energy's more than Red Bull. I usually drink a couple when I'm working.

I'm not a fan of Red Bull, but they've sponsored our last two footbag events and give us boxes of free Red Bull. Red Bull are cool and extremely supportful of footbag

same here, on all counts. I used to like Red Bull before shred, but now it just starts me out feeling too jittery, so I can't play, and then I play waaaay too hard for the next few hours (often at a tournament) and I'm totally ruined for the next few days. Now I just prefer a nice, hearty breakfast and no alcohol or pot in my system before a shred. That gets me in good shape to play.

redbull does not support footbag.
they "support" every at-least-mediocre-whatever-kinda-cool-event that lacks real sponsors or people in charge that have any idea how marketing works.
what do they do? they "offer" huge amounts of "free" drinks, a tent, and a couple pretty girls to promote their drinks - what do they get? free promotion, the image that they really are "supportive" for the sport, the music, the whatever... jsut think about how many brands go out sampling free shit in the streets? tons. they aren't doin anything else.. just that they are narrowing down the target group... and they get pretty convincing supporters, in this case footbaggers... just re-read this thread and it really becomes obvious. at our last event they literally offered us as much red bull as we want!!! come on!?

ps: i know few things that aren't toxic but taste worse. actually it probably is toxic, so that doesn't count.
