Sure just put the ceo of liquid death and his buddy pasqal on their too, making water cost more than redbulls at festivals, overselling and overcrowding til ppl get crowdcrushed while lying on social media, meanwhile theres hella videos from ppl there always saying otherwise
ofc theyd try to profit off that too, not suprised, liquid death is the only water available, everyone knows it, no one ever thought it was beer, that was just a fun marketing lie and excuse to take away refillable water bottles with caps and to charge 5$ per water
The CEO is wealthy, sure, but very far away from being a billionaire.
I've occasionally bought liquid death at my local beer distributor for parties, and it's a bit expensive but not crazy. Pretty much every drink at a festival is incredibly overpriced - that markup is usually going to the vendors selling it and the venue, not the manufacturer.
But they specifically did it so they could overcharge for water while claiming it looks like beer, water bottles were cheaper and you can refill them, put the cap on and hold it on your pocket, these cant be pocketed and are given opened often
Uh, sure.
