Never tried the stuff and don't want to. Get us addicted to caffeine and high fructose corn syrup. Why does anyone waste their money on this stuff? Work out, get healthy and eat healthy and you won't need this crap. Guess who is getting rich too?
You can get addicted to caffeine but not sugar. Maybe they waste their money on this stuff because the need caffeine to function but do not like the taste, or the stains of coffee. Anything in excess IS bad for you. Stay healthy.

I manage a bar that sells Roaring Lion, and it isn't a cheap knock off. It has all the same ingredients...but is made in America!
We stopped selling Red Bull because of the price and how big of jerks the people that work for them are. In this economy more bars will continue to follow suit.
When someone asks for a Red Bull, we tell them "We have Roaring Lion. It is better. Do you want to try it?"
I am not sure if I tried roaring lion but as long as you are not passing it if for Red Bull you should be fine. It MAY have the same ingredients but you have to take into account the proportions and how it is made. "Do you want to try it?" MAYBE.

I'm on Red Bull's side. If a bar doesn't want to pay for Red Bull then don't make false claims about serving it. Red Bull is a business that has every right to protect its image even if people don't think is such a big deal for bars to lie to customers. Also, if customers realized they were getting a less expensive substituted for Red Bull they may not buy the drink in the first place. Therefore, bars that lie about using Red Bull are using deceptive practices that could potentially cut into Red Bull's profits.
YES!!! Exactly my point. I have started rejecting drink requests that were not to my instructions.

Hey Tribune, fix your headline!
Roaring Lion isn't a "Red Bull Substitute". It is a competitor that obviously has Red Bull worried enough to sue people.
What a great customer relations policy.
Yeah!! fix your headline cause Red Bull has no substitute but imitations."Roaring Lion"

Red Bull sounds kind of psycho now.
I agree with this bartender from the article:
"One bartender told an undercover Red Bull investigator that Red Bull was something of a generic term for energy drink: "It's like if you ask me for Kleenex and I give you a tissue.""
No one's going to ask for some random unknown energy drink, and many people won't care if it's not the name brand drink.
Well I am not most people. I am THE FEW.If you don't care then keep making the same requests and I'll demand Red Bull.... true Red Bull not bull....

Actually, John, all it proves is that Red Bull didn't hire incompetent lawyers. If Wet did hire lawyers at all, Wet should go after them for malpractice. That's just plain incompetence.
Go Red Bull. I've been drinking it for over 2 decades, starting when I was living in Austria. There are no substitutes; I've tried them all.
I will try all the substitutes but believe will find my path like you , to Red Bull.

Solution for bars - have a small supply of Red Bull on hand. When someone orders a Red Bull and (insert beverage here), make a show of popping open the can, make the drink, then charge double what the cost would be if made without Red Bull.
Turn their $10 drink into a $20 drink, and see how quickly people stop ordering Red Bull
No, I'll just go to the next club/bar if they serve that immitation s*i*.
