Or so the laws of shotgunning dictate. On one hand, racing is just fun. When we were kids, every 20 minutes somebody was saying they could reach the end of the block or some tree or the lemonade stand earnings safe faster than somebody else—what happened to that?
Competition, plus some sharp, shiny objects and suddenly that pack of Miller Lite seems a lot more exciting, and your afternoon far less depressing. The bro-experts' preferred 'gunning spots: Lars, "A pream football tailgate while wearing some kind of sunglasses with Croakies," and " the freshman dining hall while the check-out lady [is] ringing you up. Nothing makes me feel more alive or is a better start to my day.
So, again: boats. Churches, elevators, and in plain view of the cops? Same goes for airplanes, but if you desperately want to join the Mile High Club, there's a way. You must have canned beer, and it should be light. Really, anything beyond a pilsner is flirting with trouble. The bro-experts' preferred brews: Lars: "Natty Light.
The bigger can is more impressive, but you can still whack a bunch since they're like water. You can push the envelope for the sake of curiosity. Everyone agrees you should bore the second hole at the opposite end of the cylinder from the pop-top, but as for how you should do that, opinions vary.
The bro-experts on punching holes: Lars: "I usually wolf-bite it. Red: " Taking my right canine tooth, I bite a small hole into the can , after which I take my right index finger and make a larger hole. Guy: "Insert bottom right fang 3cm above bottom of can, pull to bottom of can, remove tooth from can, use fingernail to slice aluminum into an acceptable 'gunning hole. So, there's that. An outdoor venue is ideal — an open field or the deck of a boat.
Or for a decadent yet hygienic approach, opt for the bathtub. The perfect shotgun technique begins with puncturing the can. And doing this right requires the proper preparation.
Have the longer edge facing towards you. Experienced shotgunners may prefer to hold the can in one hand. The point of positioning it this way is to move the bubble of air inside the can. Turn it on its side, and that bubble moves to the side of the can. You want to position your thumb about an inch from the base of the can. That inch is important because the metal at the base of the can is thicker.
Make sure you position the can correctly for a smooth transition to drinking. Press down to make a dent. Anything with a sharp pointy end will do. A sharp knife is great, but best not carried around outside.
Using a sharp object, like a knife or a key, poke a dime-sized hole in the side of your beer can, roughly an inch from the bottom. Be extra careful not to cut yourself! In order to decrease the amount of spillage, hold the beer can horizontally and at a slight angle , so the shotgun hole is over the air pocket in the can.
Take a deep breath in and out, then crack open that beer can. Open your throat. Start by exhaling all the air out of your lungs.
This actually is not the case and it is possible to shotgun a beer from a bottle. Shotgunning beer from a bottle is called strawpedoing. Strawpedoing can be performed on any beverage container that is not as easy to puncture, like glass beer bottles.
Use cheap beer. Carbonation levels will also play a factor in your shotgunning experience. The most chuggable beers are going to be smooth, light and with minimal carbonation. Are you planning a shotgunning competition with your friends? Not only are these beers light and easy to drink , they are also friendly to your wallet. An India Pale Ale or a Stout brewed by your favourite local brewery is not a good option for shotgunning.
Take your beer out of the fridge an hour before you plan on chugging them. This is one of the times where lukewarm beer is superior to ice cold beer. Your surrounding is critical for a successful shotgun. Even the best of the best beer shotgunners can spill a little brew.
