Most Epic Alcohol Warehouse Crash EVER…Nobody Quite Sure What Happened
Here’s what we know: This is arguably the most epic fine beverage failure I’ve ever seen, and it took place in Moscow. That’s about it. The epicness of this crash is overwhelming to even the most credible of news organizations, who can’t seem to get their stories right about what actually happened. Damage estimates range from approx. $98,000 to $200,000, The New York Times suggests a conspiracy theory, while the Huffington Post is convinced the forklift driver was drunk, though no other news organization seems to agree with them.
Bottom line, I can tell you that I once crashed the Mutineer Passat into a palate of Red Bull in the Mutineer high-tech storage facility garage and experienced the most intense terror of my human existence. Fine beverages are like piranhas, bank overdraft charges, or nihilists…encountered one at a time they are harmless, but in great numbers they can quickly wreck your world. Take heed people…take heed.
