March 18th Marks the Third Annual Celebration of Hangover Joe's Day
(HJOE) Proven Relief for the St. Patrick's Day Hangover Now
Available in a Growing Number of Locations
DENVER, CO--(Marketwired - Mar 17, 2014) - HANGOVER JOE'S
HOLDING CORPORATION (OTCQB: HJOE), the maker of "The Hangover"
Recovery Shot, announces the 3rd annual celebration of Hangover
Joe's Day on March 18th. Honoring those of you who tipped a
pint or two while enjoying everything Irish on St. Patrick's Day,
we invite you to join us in a celebratory two-ounce toast to rapid
hangover recovery on Tuesday, March 18, 2014 -- Hangover Joe's
Day. Currently available in a growing number of retail
locations and growing, Hangover Joe's two-ounce Recovery Shot
replenishes your body with key vitamins and minerals that are
depleted when you drink alcohol.
Shawn Adamson, VP of Sales & Marketing at Hangover Joe's,
stated, "St. Patrick's Day is one of the largest holidays for
alcohol consumption in the U.S.A., representing more than 1% of
total alcohol revenues each year. That's why Hangover Joe
christened March 18 as Hangover Joe's Day....so that every working
stiff out there can celebrate in the spirit of the Irish on March
17th with the peace of mind that Hangover Joe's will be there to
provide effective relief for them on March 18th." Adamson
added, "Although Hangover Joe is definitely no Saint, he knows that
on March 17th there is a little bit of St. Patrick in
everyone."
According to the 2009 American Community Survey, U.S. residents
claiming Irish ancestry are nearing the 37 million mark -- about
eight times the current population of Ireland. St. Patrick's
Day marks the death of the beloved 5th-century Catholic saint who,
according to legend, banished all snakes from Ireland and used the
3-leaf clover, or shamrock, to teach the Irish the doctrine of the
holy trinity: the Father, Son and Holy Ghost. St. Patrick's
Day has been observed as a religious holiday on the Emerald Island
for more than 1,000 years; and the Irish have traditionally used
this break in Lent as a reason to sneak off to the
pub. Initially, Irish-Americans took the idea of imbibing on
St. Patrick's Day to heart and transformed the "high holiday" into
a celebration of all things Irish.
Typically, March 18th is one of the leading "sick days" in the
country. Hundreds of thousands of people call in sick in order
to nurse the after effects of a rousing St. Patrick's Day. The
national recovery of this holiday costs American companies billions
of dollars each year. In fact, the National Institute on
Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism estimates that over-consumption of
alcohol costs the United States an estimated $185 billion each
year. Nearly half of that is directly linked to binge drinking
and productivity loss from morning after illnesses.
"'The Hangover Recovery Shot' could save world economies tens of
millions of dollars in coming years," said Adamson. "Hangover Joe's
can now be found in thousands of retail locations nationwide, and
more retail business owners are coming aboard each month as
consumers learn about and demand effective hangover
recovery."Adamson added, "With our initial 10 million bottle
agreement for distribution into the Japanese markets starting in
the second quarter, I expect that Hangover Joe's will ultimately
decrease alcohol-related absenteeism and lost productivity in the
workplace on a global basis."
