Same thing at Lafayette High. Imagine big soda giving sugar and caffeine to kids, for free, in 2021...quick cancel. It would be easier for big pharma to march into LHS and inject kids with their experimental pandemic mind control gender neutral vaccine in 2021.

They still make it. I just saw it in the cooler at my local gas station. They only had the big tall cans. Maybe 24 oz cans.
Yea but it's been cancelled again.

Surge will be leaving shelves soon, so you may experience limited availability.

I drank a lot of Surge when I worked third shift overnights in the service. Haven't seen it anywhere in a long time.

My mom would occasionally buy coke for us. She fell for the advertisement and bought jolt exactly one time. I remember thinking, this stuff is amazing.

Yes they do still make it. I buy a 24 pack on Amazon 1-2 a year. Still a good soda.

I somehow got on the Surge PR or media list as a 9 year old and constantly got these promo kits with shirts and hats and bags and whatnot. My mom got sick of it and started making me throw most of it away.
I really viewed it as the pinnacle of life at the time

They did some big promo campaign my freshman year at the university of Minnesota circa winter 1997.
Included the resurrecting of a huge snow pile painted with the surge logo with cans of surge hidden all over in the snow right in front of the student union.
Of course, later that Friday night this turned into a drunken king of hill game with snow balls and cans of surge being lobbed as weapons.
Surge Mountain was promptly removed that Monday morning.
That was the 2nd best fail in front of the student Union that year. Earlier in the fall at freshman orientation. They hired some BMX team to do tricks and stuff for all of us. Well, one guy was supposed to do a flip off this ramp but aborted during the run up.
The crowd did NOT like that and boo’ed and chanted “again”. So he tried again and proceeded to crash and snap his leg on the pavement. The event was then over as they waited for the ambulance.
-The 90’s were awesome
-whoever was in charge of student Union events that year was a fantastic failure

I remember for like a week straight in elementary school the Coca-cola vendor had igloo ice chest full of ice and Surge out on the playground for recess. About a month later we got a Surge vending machine.

They stopped making it because it was turning frogs gay.

Surge machine (no other colas) in the 3rd grade hallway in my intermediate school - 30 cents a can. 200 little 8 year olds cracked out of their minds all day every day.
