stevewin Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 Last week when visiting Buffalo for the week of the 4th, I became enamored of a certain pint glass I noticed at a place I frequent (Frank's in Lancaster) - it has a Labatt Blue logo on the side above a Bills logo. For some reason I just think they are the sweetest beverage container I have ever seen. I tried to buy some the first night I was there but they wouldn't sell - I'm sure the staff figured it wasn't their place to make that decision. Finally when I left that night the bartender just gave me one - I guess he figured I had earned it with all the Blue I drank Was there two more times during the week and each time the staff declined selling me any (I want a set of 4 ), and I didn't want to steal any. I looked on the web to try and find any way to get a hold of them w/o success. I did try to plant the seed w/ my Dad ("Boy - a few more of these would sure make a nice birthday present!") - we'll see how resourceful he is. Anyone else notice these glasses as you've ventured out recently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfladave Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 I saw the same glass at Consumer beverages in Hamburg about 2 months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got two of those. I got them from Benchwarmers in Ithaca, NY last year (i think i was watching the second Jets game there.) It was one of those buy a pint, keep the glass and get cheap refills deals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMadCap Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 My brother talked some bartender out of a set of them. He moved in with me shortly after. However, the glasses mysteriously dissapeared during his move-out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost of BiB Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 I've collected quite a few unusual beer glasses over my travels. Most of the time people were happy to give me one if I asked nice. They have some pretty fancy barwear in Germany and Belgium. Of course, I've borrowed some as well. Same with coffee cups. Don't think I've bought a coffee cup in 10 years.
