CRUNK!!! Any of you coons tried it?

The band has been offered an endorsement deal with an energy drink called CRUNK!!!!1111!1!!!11 and having tried it today it appears to be the real life version of Powerthirst. I'm not overly keen on being sponsered by a company that also deals with Lil Jon, nor am I too keen on having to drink this stuff on stage. Apparently we'd be the first UK endorsees though and it's already big in America, or so I'm told.
So my question remains, anyone else tried this god awful beverage?

"Everyone involved in this company is about 40 years old. We've brought in Lil Jon to talk to you young folk, but all he did was talk about bitches and such. Because of this, we got Keith from Marketing to watch a few episodes of Biker Mice From Mars so he could learn how to communicate to the youth of today. He noted that they seem quite into being extreme, so he replaced any constructive adjectives with the word "EXTREME", taking care to always write it in capitals. He also capitalised the brand name and added three exclaimation marks on the end to make it look like we, like you, think that proper grammar is for squares. Now get down with your bad selves and wave your hands in the air like you just don't care!"

Free shit with CRUNK!!! written on it. Hilarious as that would be, I don't think the metal community will take us very seriously if we're pausing between songs to chug from cans of CRUNK!!!, always making sure to have the logo facng the crowd for MAXIMUM EXTREME PRODUCT PLACEMENT TO THE EXTREMELY EXTREME MAX!!!!!!!!

what you do, is take the deal, and then at the end of a set, have one band member very clearly and deliberately chug down some CRUNK!!! for all the crowd to see, and then immediately fall down in a giant display of homosexuality to the ground in a fit of convulsions. make the people associate CRUNK!!! brand Energy Drink with grotesque and potentially fatal reactions, that's quality marketing right there

The weirdest part was the ingredients list. If I've learnt only one thing from Metal Gear Solid 3 it's that you don't consume something with a name that sounds like poison. So when I read the side of the can, my snake sense tingled.
HORNY GOAT WEED
SKULL CAP
ASHWAGANDA
Seriously, look it up. I don't care if they're healthy, one of them is called skull cap! FUCKING SKULL CAP! That's not the name of something that's completely healthy! As for horny goat weed, they claim it improves erectile function, just the thing I want when I'm on stage in front of a load of people who may or may not have cameras and big tits.
I may take your advice though sir. I'll either do that or try and get a meeting with Lil Jon, at which I'll repeatedly punch him for doing whatever it is that he does.

I think you should take the endorsement...i mean, what could be more awesome than a death metal band endorsed by a product aimed at blacks and wiggers?
You should take it, and totally make fun of the product, like have your singer plug it on stage saying that advertisement, ver batim, in an obviously mocking tone of voice. You guys would be fools not to accept this

My thoughts exactly, except for the part where we actually take it. I'm not even considering being part of it and will probably walk if the rest of the band think this is a sensible move.

I don't suppose your advertising company is looking for a band to endorse is it?

No. We only endorse big sellouts

I tried looking for this during my food shopping today but couldn't find it
I can't imagine drinking energy drinks each night on a tour would be that healthy, especially since you'd need to sleep at some point. Maybe you could just wash out a can and fill it with water/soda/beer etc, before each show?

you sound like someone who takes themselves too seriously. You obviously do not realize how much fun you can have with this....Example: take the deal, play a show, and just totally insult the product & the company and throw it all over the stage or something....The possibilities are endless....
there are alot of things I would rather not think about, that I would do to be in your position sir.
