People watching in the bars is half the fun of going there. See which of your group is most observant by playing Bar Bingo. Fill in the squares by finding the listed activities happening, such as the oddball wearing sunglasses inside, someone trying to pick up a lady, the bartender using a cocktail shaker and more. A lot more fun than listening to the droning of a bingo caller.

The fine craftsmanship and ingenuity that it took to come up with his martini glass is certainly befitting of the Lamborghini cachet. On the plus side, think how much fun you can have shooting your martini up and down the bar. It may drive your friends and bartender nuts, but your drinking time is yours to do with as you choose.

There is no reason to feel badly about having a few beers while learning. And if you can’t learn physics after a six pack, maybe you can answer some silly questions from a plastic bartender. Answer questions from random categories or choose one that fits your level of intoxication. Fittingly, you just pull on the beer tap handle to start.

There is only one way to stop the bartender from pouring your shots larger and larger. You have to shoot him.
The Shot Shootout game has two modes. In the first you have nine chances to shoot the bartender once he starts moving. Every time you miss, the shot gets a little more liquor in it. In the second you get nine chances to shoot the bartender and the glass only gets filled when you make a direct hit. Choose whichever game will give you the alcohol you need.

There is no reason to drink alone when you have this nicely detailed pewter shot glass. With his hands outstretched like that it almost looks like your average, friendly bartender ready to just listen or dispense advice as needed. If you are sitting home alone drinking and talking to this guy then it is pretty obvious you need some advice. To try to head that off they sell these in sets of 2.

If you are a handyman or tool over who also enjoys making drinks for guests then this bartending tool kit is right up your alley. Look at the contents of this thing: Nails (olive picks), Hammer (bottle opener), Saw (lemon/lime slicer), Screwdriver (corkscrew), Spackle Knife (cocktail strainer) and a jigger with no tool likeness at all. A pretty cool gift for that fatherly figure who you have no idea what to get for a birthday.

“Damn it Jim, I ‘m a doctor not a bartender!”
I can hear it from Bones right now if he were given one of these for his years of service on the Enterprise. For the rest of us, this bottle opener is an excellent way to exhibit our appreciation for science fiction television. And have a beer. Can’t forget that.
