Stupid. Banned due to a bunch of 17 to 19 yr olds getting wasted because they're "inexperienced drinkers"? It even said in there they'd been drinking vodka and rum along with these drinks. "Hospitalized with BAC's ranging from .12 to .35". They were hospitalized for .12 bac? seriously? This is just another example of how stupid our government can be sometimes. Banning these drinks isn't going to do anything, college students get hospitalized due to binge drinking all the time, be it on vodka, rum, beer, whatever. It's nothing new....Four Loco didn't create this new problem. This won't stop anyone from drinking Vodka Red Bulls, which is probably worse than four locos since it's hard liqour mixed with energy drinks, instead of beer. Dumb, dumb, dumb.
