Man Jumps From Hotel Ceiling Because… Red Bull
Red Bull paid a man to jump from the top floor of the 19-story Gaylord National Hotel and Convention Center and parachute through its atrium.
D.C. United striker Charlie Davies, who was nearly killed in a car accident on the George Washington Parkway in October 2009, has filed a $20 million civil suit against the owner of the nightclub he was partying at before the accident and Red Bull, who hosted the party.
Plan your naps accordingly, set your alarms, and stock up on your Red Bull, folks. The DCist, Blisspop and Brightest Young Things super duper 9:30 Club extravaganza is finally upon us!

Olsen Leads United’s Offensive Outburst
D.C. United dispatched the New York Red Bulls yesterday, 4-2. In previous years, this would not be any more than standard procedure for the boys in black, who had compiled a 24-15-5 record against their Atlantic Cup rivals.
