Who was the first person to drink a monster energy drink?

It's impossible to know for sure who the *very* first person to drink a Monster Energy drink was.

Here's why:

* No recordkeeping: When a new product is launched, there's no way to track down every single person who buys and tries it on day one.

* Early production: Monster Energy was first launched in 2002, so the first drinkers would likely have been involved in the production or early marketing of the drink.

Even if we could identify the first person, their story wouldn't be particularly interesting. The real story of Monster Energy lies in how it became popular and its impact on the energy drink market, not the identity of the first person to try it.
