Champagne is awesome. You can diss people with it, you can experiment with it, you can just drink it and feel good, AND it might even boost your memory! More importantly, you can celebrate with it and if you’re neighbors with Mr. 305 (a.k.a. Mr. Worldwide, a.k.a. Pit Bull, a.k.a. you live Miami), your bubbly celebrations are about to get a whole lot more violent. Introducing, the Champagne Gun.
According to Champagne Gun distributor Jeremy Touitou, this $459 boozing accessory is the first of its kind (oh, you don’t say). It comes in three colors — gold, rose gold, and chrome — and can spray champagne up to 23 feet. It’s basically a super soaker. So, while a company called Extra-Night may be responsible for inventing and patenting the Champagne Gun, we’re pretty sure every kid who ever put juice in their water guns growing up deserves a little credit, too.
The company released a video to prove how underwhelming and unnecessary the gun is.
Extra-Night’s Champagne Gun accessory only accommodates magnum sized bottles. It also requires that, much like in pre-Champagne Gun days, you still have to shake the bottle yourself. So, what’s the point? Well, we could ask you the same thing about this booze baby or these weird weapons/toys.
Touitou, or “King of Sparklers,” hopes to sell the Champagne Gun applying the same strategy he used to peddle sparklers to Miami clubs. He would sell sparklers to the clubs who then attached the sparklers to VIP bottles of champagne. When other patrons saw how cool the fancy, sparkly champagne looked, they got jealous and had to order their own. Simple, but effective.
While partygoers in Miami might be buying into this new toy, we’re not sure this is the right political climate to be introducing fun gun stuff. So, until you’ve hit it big and the next Super Bowl or NBA Champion whips one of these out to celebrate in the locker room, we’ll just stick to holding our champagne with our stupid hands.
