SEATTLE (AP) -- Ever wonder what the Seahawks' locker room tastes like after a big game?

Apparently, Jones Soda Co. thinks Seattle NFL fans want to know. The company started taking online pre-orders Thursday for a five-pack of sodas with flavors it says reflect the hard work of professional football players.


Clare Bowles, a spokeswoman for the Seattle-based company, said the four literally named flavors -- Dirt, Sports Cream, Perspiration and Natural Field Turf -- are "pretty lifelike."

"Perspiration Soda is kind of salty tasting," she said, with a slightly higher sodium content than the average soda, with a smooth, "stinky football sock" finish.

A sip of Sports Cream Soda conjures up the experience of rubbing ointment into an aching muscle, while Natural Field Turf Soda is like "playing tackle football, and you get tackled really hard, you're down on the ground and you get a little bit of the grass in your teeth," Bowles said.

The only sweet soda of the bunch, Sweet Victory, has a berry flavor.

Each bottle features the photo of a Seattle Seahawks player. Limited quantities of the five-pack will be sold in select stores starting Oct. 1.

april fools already??

WTF?

For a real authentic experience, you can drink it out of a CUP...

I heard something about it on the radio this morning, i didn't know it was real. Why would anyone ever want to taste anything like that. If you really need to taste some of those things here's an idea. You want dirt, go outside grab some and eat it. You want sweat, do something active and lick your arm. Ointment, grab the tube put a dab on you finger and give it a lick. I forget what you said the other was and last sweet victory, well quit being a pansy do something cool and you'll be able to taste it in the air. :se:

Ah, Jones Soda....a northwest staple.


This is 100% real folks. Jones got the exclusive contract to sell their pop at Qwest Field (Seahawks Stadium) and this is one of their famous marketing gimmicks.

Ever try their Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner packs? They've got pop that tastes like turkey, stuffing, and roast beef. LOL
