I seem to remember that you can get arrested for wasting police time. If so then I'm fairly certain that this could come under that. Although without the unpaid parking tickets he might have gotten away with it, so really it's his own fault. Especially as he turned his car around to get the cops attention. :downs:

OK so I was wondering what a Caeser is and apparently it's some sort of foul bloody mary with clam juice in it?!? What the gently caress Canada? Allegedly this is your most popular mixed drink. Made with Clamato juice, a delicious blend of tomato and clams. But it doesn't stop there, ohhhh no.





So, is it any good?

When I worked at a convenience store in Texas I couldn't keep that Budweiser clamato on the shelves. Apparently it's really loving good to drug addicts and migrant workers. :shrug:

Clam juice is alright (salty and a bit savory) and goes naturally with tomato. Not my drink of choice, but a Caesar is just a slightly saltier Bloody Mary. Apparently a lot of Canadians don't realize it's actually clam juice and swear off clamato and Caesars once they find out.

I have no idea what is up with the energy drinks or budweiser poo poo.

I try not to get into argument derails here, but I'm gonna plant my maple leaf flag on this one. Clamato juice does sound gross, but it's really good, and was specifically created by the bartender that invented the Caesar, for the purposes of tasting good in said Caesar. This isn't some weird "regional acquired taste" either, like blood pudding or pickled herring (okay, maybe it is). Like everyone else says, it's a more savoury, "meatier" tasting Bloody Mary.

Furthermore, it's something of a middlebrow art form. Every chain restaurant and everyone's dad has their own unique spin on the Caesar; the absurd garnishes are just the endgame.
