Someone should contact Joose and tell them to capitalize on this incident. Most media coverage they've ever gotten. I had to look up what it was.
"ANNOUNCING THE NEW OFFICIAL DRINK OF JACKRABBIT ATHLETICS -- JOOSE!!!"

I'll plead being ignorant here...I've never heard of Joose. Wine? Malted beverage? Thunderbird was the libation of choice for those who enjoyed their drink in the back alleyways in the city where I was raised. An enterprising high school student could always find someone named Astronaut Jack or something, who usually had a radio transmitter planted in his brain by the CIA, to buy a six pack for you at the Fair Oaks Liquor, located in one of the seedier parts of town, if you gave him enough cash to buy himself a bottle. Or so I was told by people in school.

Joose is a jacked up malted beverage drink, like 14% ABV. Used to be infused with caffeine and energy drink type stuff for extra kick until they were forced by the FDA to change their formula due to health concerns. Think about the trashiest energy drink meets flavored malt liquor combo you can imagine. When I think of who drinks Joose I imagine trashy trailer parks, public housing, and 20 year old girls who are looking to get F'ed up. Certainly not an esteemed head coach of an FCS football program.

This story keeps getting updated and it keeps getting worse (or weirder). Turns out Stig put his car in a ditch and was drunk and stumbling in front of the cop. Original story said he was drinking wine (insert sacramental wine joke here) but it turns out he was drinking Joose. WTF, is this guy 20, female, or does he live in a trailer park? I don't think I have ever seen an adult male drink Joose or any of that other flavored malt beverage crap. When I heard the story I didn't think he was pounding down a handle of Crown. I suppose Bartles and James I might have expected. But Joose? linkAlso, updates now say he didn't take a breathalyzer and they didn't include his blood alcohol in the police report... the smell of fishiness is overwhelming the smell of cow crap in Brookings... I would love to know what his actual BAC was? Some posters on the bunny board are trying to make this seem like not a big deal or a simple mistake to be forgotten about because Stig was at 0.08. In reality he may have been at 0.16. We may never know.

A PBT can be refused, without it there really isn't any kind of BAC to put in the police report. The blood test wouldn't have been back by the time the report was written. It will be interesting to see what his BAC was though. I like to think the worst in State so of course I would like to think coverup, but I really don't have anything to back that up with. I guess I can't hardly expect them to call a press conference the next day to announce that Stig got arrested the night before. To me the most interesting part of this story is that Stig was drinking Joose. WTF? That's what homeless people drink. Maybe Stig was celebrating a late Hobo days. Stig does seem like a good guy. I agree on some State fans holier than thou attitude, but I don't blame Stig for that. He was drinking Joose because everyone from Brookings is a trash bag.
Anyone with a mullet, shit on their boots, or overalls will have some form of blue on this weekend in Sioux Falls at the Denny. I'm surprised they have not worked out a pig auction during halftime of their quarterfinal game each year.
This is a gold mine for other teams student sections this weekend.

Honestly, I'm not even that wrapped up in what his BAC was. If he was barely over you can understand how he could have made a mistake. If he was blasted, I'm still not going to get worked up because how many people actually think straight when they are blasted? He was piss drunk and showed poor judgement. No kidding. Kind of goes with the territory when you are piss drunk. Not that I am okay with it, I understand it. Now, if a person is getting a second, third, multiple DUI's, yeah, another story.
The story for me is the Joose. That's just strange, or a serious red flag. The guy is 61 years old, he shouldn't even know what that stuff is much less be drinking it. Mike's Hard Lemonade or something like that? Sure. Kind of refreshing on a hot day on the golf course. Joose? Doesn't even register in my mind.

What's worse... Getting a DUI or having the world know that you drink Joose?
Yote 53, I'm not sure that you can question anyone's choice of alcoholic beverage when you drink Pabst Blue Ribbon & Ham's.

Some people think that Stig's statement to the press about drinking wine was a lie, when he told officers at the scene that he was drinking Joose, but to Stig's defense I think Joose does classify as a fine wine up in Brookings. So I don't think he was really lying about that at all.
I agree with others. The DWI is embarrassing, but the much bigger story here is the fact that he was drinking Joose. He's gotta be more embarrassed about that.
