Coffee can intoxicate you!


A study by The University of Massachusetts published today indicated that more than 4,000 people last year became intoxicated by drinking too much coffee or caffeinated drinks like Red Bull, Jolt or Mountain Dew. The study cites that the Center for Poison Control received more that 4,000 calls, most of them from people under the age of 19. Symptoms of coffee intoxication includes headaches, upset stomach and vomiting. It is unknown how much caffeine you have to consume in order to be intoxicated, as each person develops a different tolerance to the substance.

Hey! Forget Miller time. It's Yaucono time!!!!!
Next, instead of a cop pulling you over for DUI it will be DUC (Driving Under Caffeine)!
This gives the 3'OClock coffee break a whole new meaning!
