MissyLKS8 6 Report post Posted March 25, 2009 I was at Great Lakes Crossing Mall in Auburn Hills last week and saw a sign outside of a store, Gateway Newstand, that said they carried Limited Edition Chris Chelios Jones Soda. Being a chump, I wanted to add this to my useless collection of Red Wings memorabilia. However when I walked in and asked/looked around, there were none. The lady who worked there said she was fairly new and had no clue exactly what it was about. So I called the place today to find someone who might know and I was informed that they (the people working at the store) are getting really frustrated because people keep asking about them but they never receive any from the company. Plus, it's luck of the draw if they get any or not. It like a lottery. So my question here, has anyone stumbled across from any of them? I would love to have one. I looked online but had no luck. I did find what the labels look like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lovin Jiri Fischer 147 Report post Posted March 25, 2009 Sparty's Convenience Stores on the MSU campus has tons of them. They have been there for months. It only comes in Creme Soda flavored though which is stupid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It only comes in Creme Soda flavored though which is stupid. Darn! I was hoping for the Red Apple. I guess they picked Red and White colors. How clever? Now I need to find a way to get there (you'd think living in the actually city of Detroit would be an advantage - nope). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MissyLKS8 6 Report post Posted April 4, 2009 Okay, sorry for bring this back up but I did find them. I don't have my digital camera but I wanted to share my pictures from my phone. I have to run back and get the other box and then move on to getting the cream sodas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Seraph 240 Report post Posted April 4, 2009 This is so random. Random bottles of soda with pictures of Chris Chelios chilling the eff out on them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChelisChick 174 Report post Posted April 4, 2009 Thanks for sharing this! I would love to see those in person, but being down here in TN, I don't think that's gonna happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MissyLKS8 6 Report post Posted April 5, 2009 Thanks for sharing this! I would love to see those in person, but being down here in TN, I don't think that's gonna happen. Actually, look around! There's none I swear in the actually city of Detroit but my aunt saw a few while in Arizona. If anyone needs help finding them in the metro Detroit Area, let me know. I might be able to help... after I get my hands on them... ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dimaline312000 51 Report post Posted April 5, 2009 I've seen some of them at one of my local drug stores. I was going to buy a few but I decided against it and now I can't find them anymore. Not that I'm that worried about it but they would be neat collector's items. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ltgator333 3 Report post Posted April 5, 2009 My dad still has the bottle of 'Hasek Sauce' I bought him years ago when I worked at Meijer. I was always curious of what it actually was like but I'd be scared to open it at this point, and my old man would probably blow a fuse. It sits on his living room mantle still. The Chelios soda is waay cooler though I mean you get like what 7 different pictures of him, freaking collector's gold! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mjlegend 155 Report post Posted April 5, 2009 I'm having a tough time deciding if I'd want the "Reclining Chelli" or a "Manic Face Chelli." A couple of months ago at a grocery store, I saw a cardboard cut out up here for Webber Naturals pharmaceuticals that had Chris Chelios smiling with a bottle of their pills and a contest to "Chill out with Chelios" that could win tickets to a Wings game, an auto'd Wings jersey and a dinner with Chelios at his restaurant. Since I'm not an old man, I decided against buying some of their product and entering the contest. When you're grocery shopping in northern Alberta in 2009, pretty much the last thing you expect to see is Chris Chelios' smiling face on a promotional cardboard cutout.
