I totally get the aging thing because when I think of Gatorade a colonoscopy prep immediately comes to mind.

I download my TV and movies from Amazon Prime and that imdb stuff downloads with the content automatically.

I absolutely hated Gatorade for most of my early years, until they discovered red.

We had other ways of accessing alcohol. I always had a bottle of rubbing alcohol in my locker that was really 190 proof Everclear. Another favorite was taking high test oranges to football games. They’d been injected with liquor.

We always poured out half of our Coke and added rum in the car at the beach, too.

Wow, that glass bottle takes me back!

In the '70s they had a carbonated Gatorade.

It was tasty.

It would make a terrific mixer.

No, no, you got it all wrong. Gatorade was originally spiked with gator wizz. Those nutria they eat are loaded with lots of protein and electrolytes. And they're downright tasty, too.

The drink was initially created for the fighting seminoles of Florida state, but calling it Seminole fluid didn’t have the appeal like gator aid...

I looked up a gorgeous twenty something actress in a 1932 movie I was watching...she turned out to be still alive. I’m talking 2019 here.

I call B.S. - or can you name her?

I actually did know the origin of Gatorade, and I’m not a sports fan.

Olivia de Havilland still lives at 102. She was in many pictures including Gone With the Wind.

No picture credits in 1932, but she would have been 16. Her earliest picture credit is from 1935, A Midsummer Night's Dream.

Personally I would forgive a three-year error in dates and suggest this might be the one TalBlack mentioned.
