[CLOSED] Bottle Opener Challenge- 2015
on: July 01, 2015, 11:27:33 PM
It is once again it is time for the Bottle Opener Challenge!

If you weren't around for the previous Bottle Opener Challenges you might be wondering what the heck a Bottle Opener Challenge is- well, it's pretty simple.  I use a different bottle opener to open a beverage each day, and I am not allowed to use the same one twice.  With the collection I have, that shouldn't be much of a challenge, right?

Well, to make it more interesting, members are encouraged to post pics opening bottles (no staged shots- you have to actually use it!) and add tools to the list of used tools, meaning I'll have to dig deeper to make it to 31 days!

Whether I make it or not, I'll pick a winner at random from the people who posted pics- if I fail I'll pick a winner when I fail.  If I don't I'll pick a winner at the end of the Challenge.

So, what do you win?  Well, this year's Bottle Opener Challenge is sponsored by the fine folks at Tec Accessories, and they are betting one of their RETREEV tools against me!



Let's face it, you know you have always wanted a convenient pocket sized grappling hook, and now if your chance!

So to kick off this contest AND Canada Day, here is a Gerber Octane opening an Alexander Keith's India Pale Ale!

~NOTE: Beverages don't have to be adult oriented!~

Next you'll be telling me they have to be bottle openers not can openers.

Twice! Two times a year, I drink from a bottle with a bottle cap. I always open with a SAK, and then I just happen to miss this thread by a few hours?! Well, that, and I didn't take a picture.  :twak:

Good luck Grant.  ;)
