tiltEXPO- page 5
Red Bull was one of the sponsors of tiltEXPO, meaning there were plenty of free samples out and about all weekend. Now, I will accept and consume just about ANYTHING if it’s free, and my caffeine intake is already the stuff of medical dramas, so I was reeeeaaaally jumpy most of this weekend.
Still, it’s better than that one MAGfest where the 5 Hour Energy people showed up and gave away free samples. At least I didn’t have to ride home in an ambulance (fun fact: the 5 Hour Energy people are forever banned from MAGfest)
(Historical Notes: I think I said this elsewhere, but it bears repeating. I haven’t consumed a single energy drink since most of my update stuff went on hiatus, and I think it’s added years onto my life. In fact, I think this right here was the first time I was ever consciously aware of what the various different flavors of Red Bull even were. I think it’s also worth noting that they just had a few giant coolers full of cans out in the open for repeat “customers” to come by and grab whatever they wanted. Just about every other con where I’ve seen drink companies give away samples, they had people specifically handing out one per person. Methinks SOMEBODY didn’t want to have any leftovers to load back into the truck.)
