Empty Orange Can from Keystone Light
A Free Keystone Light Can…for Me To Poop On

When I heard the doorbell ring, I excitedly ran to the door, as I knew UPS was delivering a package today. Quivering with excitement, I accepted the little box only to discover that it was a crappy empty orange can. Yes, the Keystone Light freebie had finally arrived.
The only question now is: what to do with it? Aside from just recycling it, they do helpfully offer some suggestions:
- Amaze your friends by fake drinking!
- Attach to the top of old sports trophy and award it for various hunting achievements (best unsmooth hunting moment, best fish tale, etc.).
- Use pine cones and evergreen branches build a festive centerpiece for your holiday table.
- Brighten up your bathroom.
- Attach two cans with string and make a primitive communication device (about as reliable as your local phone service)
- Hang outside your house with other empty cans to make a classy hunting-themed wind chime.
Hey, Who Drained My Beer?!

What’s kind of odd is the big hole at the bottom of the can. Did they have beer in it at some point and then drain it out? That would simply be depressing.
Perhaps it’s simply a way to mark non-winning cans. That would probably make more sense.

The hole at the bottom of the keystone can is a shipping requirement. It is mainly because it costs more to ship pressurized containers than it does to ship a depressurized one.
So no there was no beer, just a lot of air!
