yea this was on my local news! I do feel bad for Red Bull being sued over such bullshit from a class action group of asshats! dealing with the public is tough! now finding out that people can actually not just sue your business, but sue and WIN!!! over something as stupid as this is just horrible!  |

Red Bull is one of the more powerful "energy" drinks. Powerful in the sense that it has a much higher caffeine content than products such as GatorAde, etc.
People are suing, because it's mostly giving people a high dose of caffeine and sugar, but that in no way produces better concentration or energy.
All it does is give you a temporary caffeine buzz. You could drink four cups of coffee laced with sugar and get the same result.

I think 'gives you wings' tells you it is a joke and they just being funny. You can sue for somebody not being funny after all?
