    Was leaving Casey with a case I was grabbing for a buddy and dropped the whole thing walking to my car. Lost an Apricot Family Preserves and a couple of Apricot Cuts. Troy saw the whole thing happen and replaced the bottles on the spot.

    I think we have all learned a valuable lesson here today. Always carry a straw, incase of emergency.

    Last week I stumbled across a 6 of Ballentines IPA that was only 10 days old. I purchased it and put it into my garage fridge. I went to get it out to go to a friends house as neither of us had ever tried it and the bottom fell out on the carrier. All 6 bottles smashed on the floor of my garage. Super bummer. What a mess and waste of good beer. It smelled great. Too bad we didn't taste it. There was much glass to try and lick the floor.

    I know you ended up getting this one (or already had it) but that is still a real loss, not many out there.

    dropped a bottle of Dragons milk last New Year's Eve. The closest liquor store to home that carries it is a 2hr drive

    Dropped a 32oz of Lagunitas Sucks about a year or so ago coming home. Pretty devastating, and was a pain to clean up.

    A business trip found me in the Green Mountain state. My travels secured me fresh Lawsons Finest sip of sunshine, alchemist heady topper , focal banger and crusher. I arrived at Fiddelehead and was able to buy cans of Mastermind. I filled a growler of Hodad and continued on my journey. When I arrived at my hotel later that night, I opened my trunk to find that the Hodad had met the crusher and the growler was split into a dozen pieces or more. The trunk was flooded , I was chagrined. Cleaned out what I could and continued on with my life....except my satellite radio stopped working, then my Bluetooth cellphone access and then my aux connection.

    Took my car to my mechanic. " hey, you have a brown liquid in the spare wheel well...."

    I explained my recent journey.

    " yeah, well your car has a sensor in the wheel well which is drowned and drunk on porter..."

    The cost for a replacement sensor is $650.. No Hodad, new sensor ordered. :slight_frown:

    I bought a beer that had been refrigerated at a store at lunch and it was placed in a paper bag. I took it out of the car after work, I didn't realize the bag was wet with condensation, and it dropped on the driveway and a shard of glass shot in to my arm. I needed 4 stitches.

    Not my story, but a couple years ago some guy on a FB group I'm in had a whole wall of shelves fall over that wasn't secured to the wall.
