He’d feed bitches red bull, givemm wings, and fly through the night sky with swagg #RealNigga” was posted on Twitter on December 24, 2011. “Alright leaving #MillerLite and chips for Santa and Red Bull for the reindeer! They gotta be tired! And well Red Bull gives u wings!” was posted on Twitter on December 2, 2011.

If Santa just drank a shit ton of Red Bull, he wouldn’t need his reindeer. The commercial says it gives you wings
