About

Gay Fuel was an energy drink marketed by Florida-based Specialty Spirits, LLC towards the gay community using the slogan "GET FIRED UP". The drink inspired a YTMND fad that began in 2004.

Origin

The original Gay Fuel YTMND was created by user petercoffin. However, it did not gain popularity until user inkdrinker uploaded Gay Fuel on June 6, 2004. This version used Tarzan Boy by Baltimora instead of the original audio (Which was surprisingly fitting.) and a higher quality image.

Many sites were made depicting characters promoting or using Gay Fuel (or a similar product), such as Gay Fuel testimonial commercial.
