Bryan: I'm not gonna get my cancer treated, the medical bills would bankrupt me

(The submission form wanted me to use the word 'spongebob case' in the example. But it didn't serve the joke, and the meme is widely known, hence this unnecessary text. Ideally the editor will remove this text before publication.)

In the 1980’s in Essex county, Nj, I worked in a restaurant where the wait staff was predominantly white and the dish room was predominantly black. (I maintain I was the last white American man to work as a dishwasher!) whenever any of my coworkers wanted a quarter for change they would always ask for a “case quarter.” No explanation was asked for, none given. But it was fairly widespread urban slang at least in the mid eighties in northern nj.
Just now, I’m watching an old film on tcm, “flying down to Rio”, and one of the principle characters asked another for a “case quarter” again looking for a 25 cent piece for smaller change. No further context given.
Brings back wonderful memories, as well as a few questions!

Cody's Bourbon and Cola - well known as "court case in a can" in New Zealand. Named as such due to the frequency of violence and police call outs related to consumers of Cody's. Consumed by obnoxious 12 year-olds getting drunk in city skate parks, through to hard blokes and sheilas in rural New Zealand.
Originally 12% alcohol, they have slowly been getting reduced down in alcohol strength (7% as of 2022) due to pressure from police and politicians.

You crack the first court case in a can and suddenly it's tomorrow, you've got no shirt on and you're wearing somebody else's jandals.
