When we lived in Tampa my Gasparilla Krewe mate brought a backpack full of those test-tube shooters to the night parade. My husband, proudly wearing his official "Security" shirt for our Krewe, was elected to carry it. As we marched along the gals from our all women krewe would meanander over to him, get a hug and a shooter. It was a fun evening, but I'm suprized we never lost anyone that night! He had a blast! These were the ones they sell at Costco, in lots of 48 or so!

The same friend also got tossed from the Jimmy Buffett concert that year. Again, those shooters were involved! This time I carried in the backpack. They searched us, but didn't say anything about those. They are each sealed at the top with foil. I didn't drink much that night. But I spent about 45 minutes after the concert gathering up our party, which had driven over in an RV. My friend has been tossed because at some point in the evening she took the shooters, bribed her way to the front row and then decided Jimmy really needed to meet her! I guess all the shooter bribes in the world can't get someone climbing up on stage ignored! Later she was bumbed out because she had also given away her grass skirt and various fancy mardi-gras type beads in her quest for the front row...
