12 Inch Poll: Bad Drinking Memories

Most of us remember our first drinking experience. Some of us don’t. This week’s poll is serving up bad drinking memories. But there’s a catch. We’re not here to talk…

FDA Investigates Dangers Of New Caffeinated Alcoholic Drinks

MIAMI – OCTOBER 27: Cans of Four Loko are seen in the liquor department of a Kwik Stop store on October 27, 2010 in Miami, Florida. The Food and Drug Administration is reviewing whether the drinks are safe for consumers after complaints that the fruit flavored malt beverage keeps consumers from realizing how intoxicated they are leading to possible alcohol poisoning.

Most of us remember our first drinking experience. Some of us don't. This week's poll is serving up bad drinking memories.

But there's a catch. We're not here to talk about stealing swigs of your dad's Michelob or sips of your mom's White Zinfandel or shotgunning Natty Ice in the woods with your buddies. We're here to talk about malternatives and alcopops and wine coolers and bum wines. In other words, all the crap people who shouldn't be drinking end up drinking.

Disclaimer: this week's poll is not a celebration of underage drinking. I, Adam 12, do not condone underage drinking, nor do the powers-that-be at ROCK 92.9. This is simply an admission that yes, many of us drank before we were of legal drinking age. And the choices that many of us made were not good, which should come as no surprise.

So dredge through those bad drinking memories and tell me: what swill were you swilling? I've highlighted three generations worth of bad booze below. Pick your poison, then hit the ROCK 92.9 Facebook or Twitter and tell me if there's a bottle or can I missed.
