A nice surprise

Post by Beer-lord »

We went to visit our son and tailgate for a game this weekend and planned it around his birthday Thursday. I got to his place and saw a 35 quart Yeti on the chair and opened it thinking, 'this kid has no money, how'd he afford this' and then saw a card inside for me for Christmas (am I allowed to say Christmas?) and our Anniversary on 12/29. Wow, just wow! I still don't know how he could afford this and think the wife and girlfriend and even the MIL were all involved and feel bad that kind of money was spent on me but, I was told to shut up and appreciate it. And I will.
Oh, and he had a 6ixer of Gotta Get Up To Get Down coffee stout in it too! Bonus!

Pretty sure. He's coming out OK even though RedBEERd is his godfather. We all know that alone could cause problems.
This box is heavy with nothing in it and keeps ice a very long time. It should do that and wash my clothes, clean my fermenter and more for the price of these babies.
