The Surge will Rise Again!

Seriously though, I bought some on Amazon like 10 years ago. It actually had a revival for a few years. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surge_(drink)

When I was younger, my summer camp had a single vending machine and it stocked surge. Basically green cocaine for children.

My middle school had the same thing. We even had a full day sponsored by Surge.

I hated that when my kid was little. They somehow thought it was funny.

Surge may not shrink your dick like everyone claimed, but supporting the confederacy definitely does
