Want a REAL adventure in drinking this weekend?

Read the reviews of the individual "wines". That's the most hilarious bit!

3. Yeah that's true. You wouldn't want to try these more than once.

4. Mad Dog was a college staple. You definitely got your money's worth with that stuff.
Also, it was a lot easier to smuggle into the dorm, especially when your room is right next to the RA's. :eyes:

5. No TJ Swan??? This is just wrong!
Mellow Days? Stepping Out? They didn't make the grade with this crew? I call them wine snobs!

6. They include wines based on two factors....
High percentage of alcohol content, starting at 15% and going up from there, and cheapness.

If your choices didn't make it, they might not be cheap or strong enough to be a "bum wine".

That being said, you can comfort yourself with the fact that all the products you mention are indeed absolute crap.

8. A cheap buzz is, indeed, a good thing. However you can't dismiss the flavors.
There is NOTHING quite like that cloyingly sweet taste of wine with HFC added for flavor. Yessirree, that TJ Swan is "Da Stuff." Can't TELL you how many bottles of that crap got consumed while served in a brown paper sack.


:puke:
