I wonder if anyone has ever thrown these away or if they all just end up on sidewalks

[GAMEGOD]

If you thought you was getting actual whiskey at a gas station you deserve to get rolled over in court and life

[ryanhildebrandt]

Buy something for 99cents and complains it is not like like the real 5 dollar thing. It's not fraud because it clearly says on the label malt beverage with less alcohol.

[bradfetsko]

Gas stations can't sell liquor. That simple people 🤣. They can sell beer and malt liquor only.

[jpselfmade]

Officer:if you don’t remember that’s fine
Dude: Naw I wanna tell ya😂😂😂

[NeroWolf]

Just read the packaging? people are so dumb these days that they gotta sue people because they were wrong

[michaelamundson]

To be honest, I had no idea that fireball even contained whiskey. So, does it make it any better. Not really.

[darkshortstories]

Imagine wasting your money in a lawsuit because you can't read a label

[adamcg]

It doesn't even taste like whiskey. It tastes like malt Beveridge which is nasty.

[jackkingsby]

If you are drinking fireball you don't deserve the right to say you are drinking whiskey

[justingonzalez]

So the one with whiskey actually costs more too and you can’t find it in some stores. Not every gas station or store has a liquor license so if you want the one with whiskey, go to somewhere with the proper license to sell it.

[awesomepants]

To be fair the second one doesn't advertise whiskey while the first one says it

[MsGoon]

If you're gonna have something with cinnamon, get you a bottle of Hot Damn 100.

[JustB]

If it’s in a store that you can’t buy other spirits in, then it’s not gonna be the spirit version either. Kinda common sense folks

[RoninGaijin]

The fact it says they contain 16.5% alcohol is straight up BS. I bought a flask of it to test my breath after to see if it registered anything at all and it was .02 after a full flask which is not possible if it had 16.5%

[TheSunOnaSkateboard]

Bro I don't care which alcohol it is the cinnamon gives all the taste anyway

[clv]

But it is literally labeled and tells you which ones have whisky and which do not🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[Anthony-yohe]

People are dumb, the bottle was labeled correctly, they just didn’t read it.

[simonsamuel]

I believe you now
Just went in the store and saw it
That’s bullshit

[kyleb]

What if the gas station ones say cinnamon whiskey too???
