shot glass made of iceThere are few things more satisfying than taking a shot then chucking the glass to the floor to break it. Unfortunately, it can either get expensive or get you kicked out of the bar. Here to soften the burden is the Fred Cool Shooters Shot Glass Mold. The mold can produce four shot glasses made of wonderful disposable ice. Throw a few batches worth in your cooler and then enjoy one quick shot at the tailgate before heading to the game. No clean up and no worries. Plus you get to see the faces of your horrified tailgating neighbors as they believe you’re breaking glass all over campus. At $8 you certainly get your money’s worth.

The Mustasche Flask

This website won’t make a habit of recommending products from Urban Outfitters. And I’ll also concede that this product is more about winning laughs while tailgating than easily sneaking liquor into a game. But nonetheless hipster college football fans, I present the mustache flask.

The Shoot a Brew is definitely a novelty item. The price of and need for a cooler that will throw you a beer are questionable. But it’s also pretty damn cool and more feasible then the long lasting goal of teaching your dog to fetch you a cold one. The cooler holds up to 24 beers, launches them 8ft through a flap in the top, and is controlled by a remote. At $295 and a limited ordering process, the closest you’ll come to one of these are probably the videos below. But a guy can dream.

Drinking in Style

There are times when a Solo Cup is just not the right fit. After a particularly kick ass win, a deserving gentleman may desire a Victory Whiskey. And depending on the quality of said bourbon or scotch, the taste of plastic may sully the whole experience. So why not drop $100 plus on a set of four glasses with leather koozies from Col. Littleon. It will prevent your hand from heating the glass, cuts down on the chances of the glass breaking, and makes your accompanying victory cigar look all the more regal. After all, it’s not everyday that you blow out Louisiana Monroe.

If you’re wondering if that’s a stripper pole attached to a trailer hitch… it is. For just $500 you can get a stripper pole and platform that fit on a standard tailgate hitch. For the record

“The Hitch Pole frame and stage is made of the highest quality steel which allows it to support to 200 lbs.”

I guess I’m a glass half empty guy, but wouldn’t a better design be for the pole to only support about 150 pounds? Do you really want a girl hovering around the deuce mark on a stripper pole anyway? Or should I be optimistic and realize that the pole could hold two 90 pound girls? I’m guessing we’re about a month away from one of these showing up at a LSU tailgate.
