    I prefer red bull. Drinking isn’t conducive to all night gaming.

        You start the night with a vodka redbull

        No happy memory ever starts with a vodka redbull

            Whiskey & coke back when I was in college. Now it’s just beer. It was mostly a joke about vodka red bulls being what we drank when we were trying to get drunker than we’ve ever been.

      We actually always just went with coffee, even as teenagers. I guess as early millennials, we weren’t yet the energy drink generation.

      I 100% agree, though: alcohol beyond a beer or two isn’t recommended for a LAN at all. Although I guess I have a “fond” memory of sitting there, playing Left4Dead with friends at a LAN, when one who didn’t play himself at that moment piss-drunkenly leaned on my shoulders from behind, slurring directly into my ear: “You have to shoot them! Shoot them! You have to shoooooot them!!”

        I mean if anything balls existed back then, marketed specifically for that. I don’t know a ton of people who actually did but I mean, if it was anyone drinking energy drinks back then it was gamers.

          Shit I was drinking red bull in 1996. Pretty sure it had been around for awhile at that point too.

        Red Bull has been around since the 90s. I used to drink red bull, bawls, and surge during ye olden days of lan parties.

          I was about those Jolt Colas, but Bawls were a good fallback at the LAN cafe when the jolt sold out.

                I meant Vault, it was essentially Mountain Dew with 50% more caffeine.

          Maybe it was just my circle of friends, we used to all hate Red Bull irrationally and didn’t know anyone who liked it back then. It just felt like a crappy, “juvenile”, “non-nerdy”, “commercial” brand somehow. Might have been a subcultre thing.

      No love for Bawls? When I was younger the best LAN parties had Bawls. I think they still make it; no idea if it tastes the same.

      What about just coffee or tea? As a grown up you can ignore the marketed sugar and go straight to the caffeine.
