RENO, Nevada (AP) -- The mother of a 19-year-old killed in a traffic accident is suing Coors Brewing Co., claiming that it promotes underage drinking.

Jodie Pisco, of Reno, contends Coors has failed in its duty to protect the country's youth from drinking. Her son, Ryan, was killed in 2002 after he drank Coors at a party and drove his girlfriend's car into a light pole at 90 mph, the lawsuit says.

The lawsuit, filed Wednesday in Washoe County District Court, seeks unspecified damages. It accused Coors of "glorifying a culture of youth, sex and glamour while hiding the dangers of alcohol abuse and addiction."

Laura Sankey, a spokeswoman for Golden, Colorado-based Coors, said that although she could not comment on pending litigation, the company "doesn't want underage consumers -- period."

"Tragedies like this further reinforce why the fight against underage drinking and drunk driving must continue," Sankey told the Reno Gazette-Journal.

Also named in the suit were Ryan Pisco's girlfriend and her mother. The lawsuit alleges the girlfriend allowed Pisco, who lacked a valid driver's license, to drive off in her car, which had been given to her by her mother.

:angry:

So, let's see... Everyone is responsible for her son's death. Except her son, who drank the drinks and drove the car and herself, who should have already helped instill some common fucking senser into her 19 year old son's head.

Sad thing is, she'll probably win or ate least get a settlement out of it. :headwall: :headwall: :headwall:

We need a loser pays legal system. Fast! :unsure:

I am suing them too. I got drunk and went home with a fat chick.

Coor's Light really isn't beer so .....

If he was drinking Coor's Light

CASE DISMISSED
