Football Beer Caddy

February 5, 2012 By Jay Brooks 2 Comments

I found this odd little gadget while searching for an image this morning. It’s a Football Beer Caddy, apparently “handcrafted from recycled steel.” The 12-inch tall steel sculture is meant to hold your beer, though I can’t for the life of me understand why you’d do that. After pouring your bottle into a glass — you are doing that, right? — why would you need a caddy for the empty bottle?

According to the website, they’re “handcrafted by American and European artisans using recycled steel and copper that is bent, cut, welded and brushed resulting in original works of art for the perfect unique football gift idea or unusual home accent piece. The moment you hold an H & K metal sculpture, you will appreciate its craftsmanship, quality and value.” Maybe, but if you want your own, $81.99 is what you’ll need to plunk down to get one of these football beer caddies for your very own. Crazy.

    see loads of tehse at “continental” markets around the UK and tourist gift shops. Though they’re usually for wine bottles.

    When drinkers have extra extra cash: Wine drinkers dress their bottles; beer drinkers buy more beer.

    Question the integrity of a beer lover who chooses to dress their ale rather than cellar it properly.
