Red Bull has been around since the 90s. I used to drink red bull, bawls, and surge during ye olden days of lan parties.
I was about those Jolt Colas, but Bawls were a good fallback at the LAN cafe when the jolt sold out.
We also had Vault.
*Volt, but I like your safe-themed version
I meant Vault, it was essentially Mountain Dew with 50% more caffeine.
Maybe it was just my circle of friends, we used to all hate Red Bull irrationally and didn't know anyone who liked it back then. It just felt like a crappy, "juvenile", "non-nerdy", "commercial" brand somehow. Might have been a subcultre thing.
