wow, lots of comment on this issue. jeez, i have been drinking stuff just like 4 loco for yearssssss. nobody has ever heard of Sparx and Sparx+ ? yes, i probably have gut rot and health problems, but why all of a sudden did 4 loco become a target when the other companies with similar drinks have been overlooked for years? it all boils down to drinking responsibly. just because some people died from drinking it doesn't mean it must be banned statewide. people have been dying from alcohol poisining for years and we tried prohibition. just drink responsibly. like i said, i have been drinking sparx for probably 5 years or more. (not like a few a day.. but like 3-4 every month for partying times)... i've had some wild times too, but nothing that out of control. 4 loco is just taking a lot of heat from the media and congressmen want to look good by banning it.

i think maybe because 4loko went a little overboard with it. 4loko is 12% alcohol, i believe the strongest sparks is 7%? not entirely sure. and the 4loko can is nearly twice the size of the sparks cans.

Yes you can. Cheap whiskey or vodka. $10 for a 750 of 80 proof?

Sparks is 8% at its strongest and doesn't contain any caffeine (although it did when it came on the market)
