Safety Tips for a Legendary Night:

1. Be Your Own Bartender: Watch your drink being prepared and carry it yourself.
    
2. Seal the Deal: Opt for bottled or canned beverages and ensure the seal is intact before opening.
    
3. Keep It Close: Never leave your sight. Drink spiking can happen in milliseconds. If you need to step away, finish it or get a new one upon return.
    
4. Trust Your Instincts: If something tastes or smells off, don't drink it. It's better to be safe.
    
5. Squad Goals: Party with friends you trust, and look out for each other throughout the night.
    
6. Accessorize Smartly: Consider using drink covers or universal straw lids to protect your beverage.
    
7. Stay Informed: Educate yourself about the symptoms of common date rape drugs and consider carrying detection tools.

• Stay Together: Ensure the affected person isn't left alone and avoid letting them leave with someone unfamiliar.
