    So, there are a bunch of guys walking around somewhere with a single bottle of Smirnoff on their belt loop?

    “Guys who would never buy Smirnoff before are even buying it now to shield against attacks,” said Kevin Wolkenfeld, a junior at the University of Central Florida in Orlando who documented the phenomenon for the school paper. (According to the rules, the only way to block an attack — besides simply refusing to participate — is by carrying a bottle.) Most players — a widening swath of the campus, he said — would probably stop “if it turns out they’re being used to market a drink they really don’t like.”

    i've heard about this not loo long ago. Someone was telling me a story about how their cousin (or something) was out having dinner with his parents. Apparently, his "friends" crashed and did the whole "you've been iced". The guy went ahead and drank the Smirnoff while on his hands and knees in front of his parents and the rest of the restaurant.

    :confused:

    I've never felt so bad for the future of the country.

    I think This is just an excuse for douches to drink Smirnoff without getting clowned.

    Who does this? What guy goes out and buys Smirnoff Ice just to do this?

    First off there is nothing wrong with drinking Smirnoff Ice. It tastes good. Secondly, if you are that concerned with image, why are you carrying Smirnoff around?

    How about instead you carry two beers and challenge to a chugging contest?

    I used to think these were funny, but they're all fake.

    My roommate was telling me about this over the weekend. Apparently her bf got "iced" at some house party last week. When she explained the concept to me, I felt it was the stupidest idea ever. Little did I know that this is a nationwide phenomena. What the hell is wrong with young people these days?
