The original sports drink, Quickick, was the BEST ! You guys from the 70's and early 80's had the pleasure.

just remember there being a carbonated sports drink, and it was terrible


I spent many nights at Broadmoor in Lafayette growing up. Carbonated 10-K was always on the menu.

I mean what could be more hydrating?

If they do this they need to do the initial roll out in K&B pop up store. People would go nuts

Three pages and no one has talked about Clear Grape. Young me was blown away by a flavored drink being clear!

This is what I remember, also. Although, I have never talked to anyone that remembers it.

Gatorade was already nation wide when 10-k came out. 10-k was regional and then Coca-cola threw money at powerade and killed it off


Gatorade was national. 10-k, started in the mid 80s took a big aas bite out of their market share in Louisiana. I think the Saints even adopted it. I want to say it was started by kentwood water.
