The night I discovered SPARKS I drank five cans. When they were exhausted I sprinted (I was very young and in strong shape) the eight blocks, up-hill, to the Chevron station to promptly buy more. The Chevron was fucking closed, so I went to a nearby mini mart. Despite still allowing me into the store and the hands on the clock proclaiming the time to be no later than 1:56 PM, I was denied the ability to purchase further SPARKS by the attendant. In a snit, I purchased a lighter, the shitty non-Bic kind, with bumpy basketball texture all over it, using my debit card.

When I went to bed I experienced the shaky, heartracing feelings you described, and then I started throwing up. So much. A sip of water would elicit a new torrent of anguish and vomit. The force of the vomiting was so intense and so pronounced that my eye ball ruptured within itself or something and half of it filled with blood. I went to the hospital, to the emergency room waiting room full of people with cancer attacks or sudden lukemia or something. The nurse gave my eye a crazy look. I didn’t want to wait, forever, and waste the energy-alcohol buzz, so I went home.

Ah, SPARKS.

My first few experiences with sparks were late night dodgeball sessions on the mean Streets of Chicago, IL. It was a 5/3 bank parking lot to be exact. A place where midgets, alts, hippies and vagrants could be one in the same. I would finish a can and be so fueled by the energy beer that I would attempt to destroy the can with my forehead. Proving to be stronger than my forehead the can would usually leave me to awake the next day with a circular, red indentation on my forehead. R.I.P. sparks

maybe you should all educate yourselfs. Its not just sparks. The government is trying to ban any and all caffeine/alcohol combinations. And its only 13states and San Francisco county that have the ban.
THEY ARE REFORMULATING SPARKS.
It will be back. go smoke crack for the time being or something.
And yes, this is comming from someone who has drank sparks since the beginning. Since the days when there was only orange. Sparks and i have been together literally since i was 14yrs old. I finally turned 21 in august and barely got to enjoy my drink of choice legally
