I got to the point where I was drinking 2 pre-game and 1 during. After a while the only effect was jitters and heart palpatations. I rarely have the stuff anymore. Maybe a can here and there for the late games. Last week I threw down one of those big ass Monster energy drinks and had major jitters. Like a previous poster, I couldn't receive a pass worth crap. I also had less stamina than normal.Dood reeding suxorz, lolz.About two hours before a basketball game once actually, I downed a couple Monster drinks, thinking that people were exaggerating the "jitters" and "debilitating crash" that they supposedly experienced from drinking them. Keep in mind my body doesn't handle things like alcohol, or even medicine well either, I'm in a minority, but long story short I actually ended up blacking out on the bench momentarily and had a hard time cathcing my breath. I had to leave the game, and our coach even thought I had to go to the hospital. Not worth it at all, and none of them taste good to me at all anyway.

Stampeder 2 Report post Posted January 30, 2008 At a bar in Winnipeg they had a booth set up that was some type of shots with the liquid ice in them. Big skinny stick of the energy drink and then they would drop the booze in which caused it to emit a weird fog from the drink. It seemed pretty cool, I was pretty drunk by the time I did one so I have no idea how it tasted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
