What's wrong with Canadians?

[ovrszd]

I call a 24 pack a case of beer. If I ever wanted a 12 pack I would ask for a dozen.

I know what is wrong with Canadians! Our case (24) of beer costs $49 and we still buy it.

BTW, my beer of choice is Budweiser. So maybe I'm not a true Canadian.

I drink Busch Lite. $20.91 for a 30 pack.

There was a time in British Columbia Olympia Beer was common…

Sad day when the Artesians left town…

Yup, least I do, a case is 12, a flat is 24.....after that, you don't give a crap what you call it .........Mike

I've always considered a case to be 12. But then I grew up 2 hrs from the Canadian boarder.

24 pack was called a 24 pack. And here in Arkansas they also have 30 packs

One thing I always liked about Canadian strip clubs was, they leave nothing to the imagination up there, unlike here.

Depended on where you live and the ordinances here in the states.

Originally in Orlando, the strip clubs were full nude. Up until I was around 25ish.

Then some old biddies got offended and ordinances were passed. In came the era of G-strings and pasties. At least the clubs in Cassleberry.

City later claimed eminent domain and closed them down.

From what I understand, in Little Rock, and North Little Rock, they are still full nude. But I haven't been to a club in years. And with a name like "The Peppermint Hippo" it doesn't really instill much confidence in the entertainment

Several years ago a good friend of mine was demolishing a house. Found this in the crawl space.

I've drank some Olympia back in the day. But I had never saw one of these.

Miller came out with the 7 oz glass bottled “pony’s”, and PBR came out with a 7 oz can. Early to mid 70’s. I consumed my share of ponies back then. A case was six 8 packs.

I remember those. Back when we were young and ignorant, they were the perfect size for throwing at signs while riding around drinking.

Yep. I never took a liking to those. Absolutely not cost effective.

When I retired I especially lean to 30 packs. Most cost efficient. Minimizes trips to town. Perfect.

Only Busch Lite? Why do you prefer it to Budweiser, Miller Lite or even Miller High Life?

Doesn't minimize the trips to the bathroom . . .

I found two in the wall of a remodel project... my brother was about to crush and I said I want it.

Remember, it's the water slogan.

The old and replacement brewery buildings sit vacant and target for vandals to this day...

Lots of good jobs lost when shut down.

Bud is too hard. Miller is too soft.

Truth.

Sleemans , or Molson Canadian, they discontinued my favorite Molson products years ago ( Molson Export and Molson Golden)

You do realize why it's golden? ....just kidding. I'm a Keith's kinda guy myself............Mike

Everything has to be a crisis. They report wind chill because it sounds scarier. The news humps a crisis no matter what the topic. Politics? CRISIS! Weather? CRISIS! Supply chain? CRISIS! Meanwhile, not a bit of useful information.

When was the last time you saw a news broadcast that told people how to dress in cold and windy conditions? "It's 28 degrees out, so you better wear two sweatshirts. Stay out of the wind, or wear a wind breaker." People work outside in those conditions all the time. Wear insulated coveralls, and the "crisis" never materializes.

Actually Larry, a local station to Portland does do exactly that I think it is channel 6?
