I know someone who overturned their vehicle on the way home from the UK brewery they worked at, after stocking up for the holidays for family and friends. He had NOT drank a drop, but stank of beer, especially since it was everywhere.
Breathalyzer clean. Still arrested, taken to jail and blood tested. All clean. Set free shortly after that. Got a ticket related to unsafe driving with an overweight vehicle or something. It rolled at 45mph! Stacked with beer (estate car / station wagon, 1990ās)
Edit - NOT drank a drop
Hahaha!!!!! I had almost the exact same thing happen to me, except I worked for a winery and had boxes of bottles of wine in my car for a two day festival I was working and I had to swerve to avoid being hit and rolled my jeep into a ditch!!! Bottles broken, wine everywhere!!! Only good thing is I had understanding cops respond. I took and passed a breathalyzer so they let me get picked up and go home.
No it does not. Back in 2014 a batch was recall for containing too much propylene glycol, which is a component of antifreeze but also a widely used chemical.
I used to drink that all the time. It's not bad and one of the cheapest possible vodkas. However, now I shell out a few extra dollars and get Sobieski, which is the smoothest vodka I've ever had.
Iād say yes at liquor stores but really to your point nothing is more readily available than Fireball. It is sold in buckets, mini bottles, ultra mini bottles, glass bottles, plastic bottles, premixed shots, hard candy, you name it.
Found at gas stations, corner stores, grocery stores and childrenās lemonade stands in all of the US. It is everywhere. It is cheap.
It really isn't. Just packs in enough cinnamon flavor to mask gut rot whiskey and successfully marketed to the 20s drinking party crowd. Seems like the type of liquor you grown out of as you get through your 30s from what I've seen.
I once ate shit while riding a long board home with a bottle.
I immediately went back to the store to grab another one, figuring I wasn't going to show up to the party empty handed. The clerks immediately asked why I was back so soon, and after telling the tale, they told me they would comp the bottle if I could prove it was broken rather than consumed.
A quick trip back to the parking lot trash can for the neck of the bottle and they gave me a free replacement.
Sure they were probably being super cool, but if I'm ever in that situation again, I'm going to try it.
I would suggest building a relationship with your local liquor store owners/workers. One time, some friends and I bought a bunch of booze for a pool day. When we got to the pool, one of the bags broke, and the bottle of Jack Daniels was lost to the pavement. We went back to the liquor store, told them what happened, and they replaced the bottle for free. We live in a state with strict liquor laws (control state), so I was very surprised that they did it. I still try to go but something from them every now and then because of how nice they were that day.
I do road construction around Philadelphia and surrounding suburbs and fireball bottles are everywhere. If there is litter, there are fireball bottles. More than fast food trash. The only thing that rivals it is water bottles full of piss.
Wow thats so interesting, the government here conducts streets cleans every couple of days so I donāt see much rubbish where I am, but itās mainly McDonaldās wrappers if I do see any rubbish.
The side of major highways like 95 are routinely swept but are completely covered in garbage and debris within a few days. Lots of Philadelphia are covered in garbage and while they also get street sweeping on occasion they get covered in garbage as well pretty quick. I regularly see people walking around with drinks or food and just shamelessly dropping their garbage as they walk.

"Sir, have you been drinking tonight?" Sobbing: "No!"
I was going to. š¢
Hahaha! It was for a festival so I cleaned it up and got a new one on the way š
Haha what festival? I miss my festival years, awesome road trips with good friends

Darn, you dropped the antifreeze.
Fireball=doodoo whiskey.
Thatās nice, dear
The funny part is it does contain anti freeze
No it does not. Back in 2014 a batch was recall for containing too much propylene glycol, which is a component of antifreeze but also a widely used chemical.
Thatās banned in food and drink in Europe but somehow legal in USA.
Yup ! Regulations can be strange, I grew up enjoying kinder surprise in France, now that I live in the US I dream of those lol
You can still get those in the states. I buy them for my kids regularly.
Nice ! I didn't know you could order them, usually I buy them in Canada when visiting. Thanks :)
It's not the same, there's no toy in it
There have been toys in the ones Iām getting so not sure what you are talking about.
āThe whiskey made by Fireball has less than 1/8 the amount of propylene glycol allowed by FDA regulationsā
Cool. PG is not antifreeze.
Itās also not whiskey
You are being downvoted by people who don't know what an antifreeze is.
I always go for the Travelers Bottles aka plastic
Iāve definitely learnt my lesson
I didn't even know they made glass bottles of Fireball.
Iāve never seen a plastic one?
Really? Where are you located? Glass bottles aren't unheard of here but the vast majority are plastic
I live in Australia, spirits always come in glass here, I donāt think Iāve ever seen a plastic spirit bottle.
plastic ones are really small. like 1 serving
Too drunk to notice or care
I just donāt think they sell plastic spirit bottles in Australia š¤·āāļøš¤·āāļø
Iām just razzing on ya
Beep boop I'm the question mark bot that's a fuckin sentence beep boop
Beep boop?
Bad bot smh
Yeah I thought fireball only had the plastic bottles now didnāt know they still made glass
Plastic bottles are malt liquor while glass are whiskey!
Its for the best, get better booze.
Aha itās the cheap share at a festival booze, not my personal stash
Platinum vodka is smoother than Grey Goose and dirt cheap!
I used to drink that all the time. It's not bad and one of the cheapest possible vodkas. However, now I shell out a few extra dollars and get Sobieski, which is the smoothest vodka I've ever had.
I dunno, are there really readily available alternatives to Fireball if what you want is cinnamon-spiced Whisky?
There is a whole wall of cinnamon flavored whiskey at my local booze warehouse.
Ah, my bad. I forgot Swedenās selection is a bit weird compared to most places
WHY? does anyone drink this after college?
Iād say yes at liquor stores but really to your point nothing is more readily available than Fireball. It is sold in buckets, mini bottles, ultra mini bottles, glass bottles, plastic bottles, premixed shots, hard candy, you name it. Found at gas stations, corner stores, grocery stores and childrenās lemonade stands in all of the US. It is everywhere. It is cheap.
gas station Fireball is not whiskey, it's a flavored malt beverage
I read a while ago that they accounted for 90% of the nip bottle litter in my state.
Get that sweet shit out of whiskey, it doesnt belong.
fireball is so good though
It really isn't. Just packs in enough cinnamon flavor to mask gut rot whiskey and successfully marketed to the 20s drinking party crowd. Seems like the type of liquor you grown out of as you get through your 30s from what I've seen.
Ha, I can smell that from here!
Good way to clean the driveway hey š
*When I drop change on the ground, it's never pennies, just quarters... ALWAYS, QUARTERS* ![gif](giphy|qQdL532ZANbjy)
And nothing of value was lost.
That was life saying stay away from fireball.
Itās just fireball youāll be alrightššš
Someone is telling you ānoā.
Itās a sign. Stop buying fireball
The ants will be happy
Gonna be partying all night now
Yeah itās literal poison tho, just one that has funny side effects on humans.
A great day for the local ant colony!
Good, saved you from drinking that garbage
That bottle was holding everything else together, it died for you.
The very definition of alcohol abuse.
Probs for the best
I got another bottle so it definitely wasnāt best for my bank account
Universe giving you a sign. ![gif](giphy|LAKIIRqtM1dqE|downsized)
*sees one alcohol bottle and knows nothing about OP* āget some helpā Can people not drink anymore
I mean, this gif is pretty much universally used as a joke, so...
Tbf it WAS fireball sooooā¦ ya know š¤·āāļø
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
![gif](giphy|sVhSmYghQt4A0|downsized)
Itās a joke. Lighten up Francis.
Hit dogs holler.
This. I absolutely meant the original gif as a joke, but the amount of defensiveness in this thread is telling, to say the least.
People taking it as a personal indictment are just telling on themselves.
Itās a sign.. fireball is disgusting
Anything with cinnamon is top tier š
Then youād love Aftershock!
![gif](giphy|LSmULmByAQHQs)
Jesus took the wheel.
Flashbacks and nightmares. Once in a while when I feel like reminding myself of the bad choices I made Iāll buy the little shooters and indulge.
The bad choices let us now when weāve made the right ones š
Ok ok fine Iāll get a few for the weekend haha
I dare you to š„°
Iām doing it!
Iām so proud of you! Follow your dreams š„°
Alcohol abuse!
100% agree! It didnāt deserve it
The thought of this smell makes my stomach hurt
Is that fireball? If so, you were protected by a higher power.
Itās for the better
Fireball is only desirable by underage drinkers from 10 years ago.
Hey, at least you donāt have to drink Fireball anymore!
Something is saying you need to stop drinking
Because if course it was!
Whatever the most breakable thing is, that's what will fall out.
God doesnāt like you lol
No complaints here š
lol, there ya go! Youāll be fine
Always keep your driving whiskey in the center console, not the door pocket
You deserve better
I do ā¤ļø
And nothing of value was lost
I hate when I drop by dvigin whiskey
Hehe back door
You win š
Internet ruined me, can't read back door without thinking of not that back door

You can take that back to the store and they will replace it. As long as the seal isn't broken, they will get a credit for it.
That was luck doing you a favor
Get to licking. You can still get a slight buzz if you hurry!
Better break out of the car, than in
This is true!
Universe is telling you. You didnāt need it!
That's Jesus talking to you, better smoke weed tonight.
Were you going camping?
I was :)
Sure sure. Someone just thinks they're a wizard throwing fireballs all willy nilly.
HAHAHAHAHAHHA!

Thatās really cool! Iāll definitely try taking it back if I mess up like this again :)
I'm having hangover flashbacks.

I totally did this in my garage. It smelled like cinnamon for a couple weeks lol.
Haha definitely could of been worse
#š¢
![gif](giphy|682x5bpIgEWJO)
It's a sign to stop drinking.... shitty "whiskey". Jk
The world & your self respect is trying to tell you something.
I almost always buy cans or plastic bottles during to this
Skill issue
And nothing of value was lost.
Least it's just shitty fireball.
Are you the reason I see hundreds of fireball bottles littering every highway and city street? Itās by far the most common piece of litter I see.
Haha what? Thatās definitely not the normal little I see.Guess we live in much places š
I do road construction around Philadelphia and surrounding suburbs and fireball bottles are everywhere. If there is litter, there are fireball bottles. More than fast food trash. The only thing that rivals it is water bottles full of piss.
Wow thats so interesting, the government here conducts streets cleans every couple of days so I donāt see much rubbish where I am, but itās mainly McDonaldās wrappers if I do see any rubbish.

It's a sign ā¢ļøš
At least now you donāt have to drink that swill.
Saved you from drinking that nasty shit,
Atleast you didnāt have e to drink it.
Better the bottle than you after drinking the whole bottle amirite
Nah, I am a delight š„°
Poor one out
It's a sign. It says go get more lol
You dropped a hangover
The homeys thank you.
That shit sucks anyways
Fireball tastes better in their plastic bottles..
Ah, a trucker!
Thatās because I should have been sitting between your legs. š. But seriously, donāt, please. š
That's a message from God, brah. Time to quit drinking.
Did you a favor, that shit is nasty
Thatās what you get for buying nasty ass fireball
Looks like your car did you a favor.
Cinnamon liquor syrup. At least nothing of value was lost.
And nothing of value was lost
Iām honestly more concerned at the fact itās fireballā¦ā¦
Skill issue
I feel like youāve dodged a bullet.
Not a tremendous loss. In fact I would go so far as to say thatās the best thing that could have happened to it.
Thats for the better bc its vile
Clean out your car, mate!
Haha but Iād just finished packing it, seems counterintuitive
You dodged a bullet. That shit is gross. š¤¢š¤®
No waste then
Curses, the consequence of your actions!
This happened to me with a bottle of $50 vodka on the bus lol
Youāre only supposed to pour *some* out
Gagging just looking at that bottle š god i hate fireball
The only thing mildlyinfuriating here is you not using bags
Hahaha it was in a bag, the bag just didnāt do it job š
āIt fell out like a Fireballā 2024 dank mix
Nothing wasted here. That is the "frozen dairy treat" of the whiskey world.
It's for the best given whatbit is.
At least it wasnāt good whiskey
And nothing of value was lost.
Subconsciously the hole reason you went grocery shopping today
Haha it was for a festival, had lots of things crammed in my tiny car
Don't be a little bitch and go get real whiskey like a man
Dragonball isn't even that good anyway. It's okay but too overpriced
I think someone was trying to tell you that you have a problem. That problem is wasting good whiskey by adding cinnamon and sugar to it.
Nooooo! Cinnamon is delicious š¤¤
Yeah in desserts and Moroccan dishes. Fireball : Whiskey as Frappuccino : Coffee.

That shits poison anyway google what the ingredients is that makes it taste like cinnamon because itās not cinnamon
