Ok I briefly saw this on the news and was shocked. A man was at a ball game and went and ordered a beer and got his son "mikes lemonade" as he went back a police officer said are you giving this to your son he said yes sir im getting him some lemonade. The officer said do you know there is alcohol in that? He said No I thought it was lemonade...for this they took his child from him. He (the child) was taken to the hospital and no alcohol was in his system. I don’t know the whole story as it was just on the news but this is absurd.

It's hard to believe that he-a drinker- didnt know Mikes Lemonade was alcholic.

I've never drank in my life and I even know that.

It's called Mike's HARD Lemonade for a reason.

(Which I could drink three packs of and probably still not get shnackered, there is so little alcohol in it.)

I thought they said 5 percent alcohol but I could be wrong

5.2% alcohol -- .2% more than Budweiser.

He could have just asked for a Beer and some lemonade and some clerk thought that since he was ordering a beer that he wanted the hard lemonade and then he just didn't pay attention to the container.

Since the kid didn't have alcohol in his system, the guy should get the benefit of the doubt. And hopefully it was just a freak accident.

Maybe that explained why Budweiser never fazed me when I used to consume alcohol (not much though) in my unsaved days.

Army PX beer used to bwe 2.5 and I've seen it put a bunch on their can. :lol:

What was really funny was that one of them slept on the top bunk. The one on the bottom bunk got awaken to a nice warm bath. :lol:

By the time he quit holloring and we all got there, thought that something really bad had happen, both bunks were wet. Glad the one on the bottom had good sence of humor. :lol:

I saw the concessions sign. It didn't say Mike's Hard Lemonade. It said, "Mike's Lemonade." If someone was a beer drinker only or an occasional beer only drinker, I can most definitely see that he could have not known what Mike's Hard Lemonade was.

Besides...don't we have Gatorade Xtreme now? Xtreme just stands for more vibrant flavor. The word "Hard" would not necessarily have told someone it was alcoholic.

Extreme case of Children's services overreacting.

yeah, that i true. They need to be focusing on the people who REALLY abuse their children instead of wasting their time on an innocent mistake!
