HopsGuy Posted September 22, 2005 Posted September 22, 2005 I'm okay with it so far. The guys applied for a trademark. No big deal. If the drinks were on the market now, I'd say that it's a bit too soon. If they bring out the drink in 2 years after the city has fully recovered, everyone will be drinking "Katrinas" on Bourbon St. and having a good laugh. I remember seeing t-shirts back in the day saying "Hugo kicked my a$$". Same thing. We take tragedy and turn it into humor. Remember the tourist guy phenomenom after 9/11?
sfladave Posted September 23, 2005 Posted September 23, 2005 Katrina, "Get Blown Away" Sounds more like a woman of the night to me. I think it would be an excellent marketing idea.

(ok, that was bad... )
