What is the best way to dispense stubby holders at a BBQ?

With so many great stubby holders to choose from, the real challenge at a BBQ is figuring out how to hand them out without giving the best ones to your favourite mates.

Sure, the idea of using a T-shirt cannon sounds ideal — firing a cooler across the yard to a mate whose fingers are about to go numb from holding an ice-cold beer. But aside from the cost (and potential safety issues), it’s probably not the most practical solution.

A simpler method? The stubby holder pyramid. Stack them up, and if someone wants that premium cooler at the bottom, they’ll have to play a round of stubby holder Jenga to get it out without toppling the tower.

Alternatively, grab an empty beer carton, toss the coolers in randomly, and let everyone pick one out. You lose the tidy display, but you gain a fun game of “Which stubby holder will I get?” Bonus points if you mix in a few embarrassing bucks night or engagement designs for your mates.

Whichever method you choose, the end result is the same — warm hands, cold drinks, and a good laugh at your BBQ. Cheers!
