I remember when Surge first came out I was in high school. One day after school in the parking lot across the street where most students went for pizza there was a box truck and two guys giving out free cans of Surge. I was hooked from the moment that sweet beverage hit my lips. I must have drank at least one can or bottle a day for a year after that. But now its gone and lives on only in my memories.

Yeah, I know the Regal on Transit still has it. Mello Yello is all over the south but its hard to find up here. Its also in Canada.

Has anyone had Vault? It tastes like SURGE.

A can’t believe some of these still exist, and in bottles even. I remember when I was banned from consuming JOLT when I was a kid because of all the caffiene.🤣 When I went to Virginia a few years ago, I stopped at a little gas station for a drink. I ended up buying 7up, Nehi, Cheerwine (delicious), Sun Drop. and A&W in bottles.
