Dad Goofs And Buys Mike’s Hard Lemonade for 7-Year-Old Son
Christopher Ratte recently took his 7-year-old son, Leo, to a Detroit Tigers game. They stopped at a concession stand to buy some lemonade. But it wasn’t until late in the game when he realized it was an alcoholic beverage.

Whether he’s heard of it or not, it does say “alcoholic beverage” right there on the label. Methinks his case for a complaint against CPS is a bit weak. I’m glad the kid’s ok, and he should take this as a lesson to be a little more careful about what you give to your kids.

April 29th, 2008 at 7:26 pmHow ’bout them Tigers! That’s no place for the timid, even the kids are getting lit!
I was at the first night game at Comerica park and watched a guy die of a heart attack. We did not miss a beat, but his dead arm came off the gurney and hit my son as they carried him off.
Oh, and LETS GO RED WINGS!

April 30th, 2008 at 3:50 amWhy didn’t the father just say he was teaching his child how to drink responsibly? That would have made sense to the social service people. These social service people always think it is opposite day.

April 30th, 2008 at 5:33 amI’ve heard of Mikes hard lemonade and silly me I always thought it was actual lemonade(non-alcoholic)
perhaps they should rename it mikes lemon flavored alcohol or something, I would have made the same mistake.
