Bret’s fans love Trop A Rocka – check this out

My name is Christine and I had the honor of meeting
Bret in West Palm Beach Florida, on June 10, 2010. Meeting Bret was truly a dream come true. I have been a fan of his since the inception of Poison. After all he had just been through in the recent months, when he first walked on stage my eyes filled with tears of joy to see him on stage again.

Then when I finally got to meet him on his tour bus Bret is truly the most admirable, amazing man, he is warm and genuine with all his fans, strong-willed, has a great sense of humor and a fighter and most of all survivor. Talking with him was like talking to a friend you have not seen in awhile. I started a petition to keep Snapple's Bret's Blend Trop*A*Rocka a permanent flavor with Snapple and told him and his awesome manager Janna about it they were really happy that I was doing that for them. Bret said you guys are more than fans you are like family. I was floored by that! I even got tattoo done while you were in the hospital, it was my personal way of reassuring myself that you would be ok.

All my friends on Facebook call me the Trop*A*Rocka girl cause I am always posting links to my petition! Sadly, on Monday July 19, 2010, I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, so now my fight is even stronger to keep it permanent! Bret, you have always been a big part of my life, for over 20 years and now I can fully understand the strong fight for your causes. Bret, you always have, but now even more,you truly give me something to believe in. Can't wait to see you in September!

    • Deborah Podgurski
      Just to let you all know, I contacted Snapple today to see if there is any truth to Troparocka becoming a permanent flavor, more runs or whatever is being posted about making it HAPPEN. Apparently, according to "Snapple's Customer Relatio...ns", they are not in any discussions on making the drink permanent, no more runs or anything. As far as they are concerned it was strickly a two-month run and that is it.

      If more people contact 1.800.762.7753, maybe things will change. Who knows. As it stands now, the product is NO MORE. Whatever you can find out there now is all there is available. Good luck finding any. I called the 7-UP distributors and they said it is finished. Don't bother emailing Snapple either, they don't respond due to the overwhelming response this drink has impacted on them. They are not ingnoring you, just dont have the manpower to answer all the requests as I was told.

      So...... give them a call and voice your complaints to make it permanent or nothing will be done. Calling and voicing your opinion is better than doing nothing at all! Thanx :)       See More
