Raleigh, NC - A 42 year-old housewife is reportedly taking on a massive soft drink giant, citing irreparable damages stemming from what she describes as a collusive "marketing scam" designed by the Atlanta-based Coca Cola company.
Roberta Williams of Raleigh,N.C. is suing Red Bull, Inc., claiming that the energy soft drink did not "give her wings" following initial consumption.
"My client's experience with the soft drink in question lies in stark contrast with the advertising claims made by the Coca Cola company and their subsidiary, Red Bull Inc.," Williams' lawyer, Sal Harding, stated in a press interview Wednesday.
The lawsuit was served last week, following a string of events that Williams deems "devastating."
"I dropped off my kids [sic] at school and stopped at the grocery store to pick up some supplies at dinner. I was exhausted from avoiding my husband the night before, so when I saw the advertisement display for the Red Bull energy drink, I thought I'd found the answers to all of my problems," Williams said. "This apparently wasn't the case."
Williams "waited for over two hours" to sprout her "wings", and by the time the Maury Povich show aired at noon, she had grown "impatient" and "tired of waiting."
"That's when I realized that I had 'been had' by the Red Bull company," Williams admitted.
The matter is scheduled to be heard in court on Monday, and, according to Harding, Williams is seeking no less than $4 million in punitive damages.
"Anything less would be an outrage," Harding said.
The Red Bull caffeinated energy drink hit shelves in 1998 and costs about $1.25 to purchase.
