Dec 10 2007New Wine Holder Necklace Lacks Class

well at least it's not a beer helmet...

2nd!

@1 this is just a more sophisticated version of the beer helmet. Just as stupid and gay though.

@3
I guess so.
plus, a beer helmet does not contain something that gives you a headache as excessive amounts of red wine does...

they forgot to mention that a woman with even the slightest bit of cleavage wouldn't be able to use this, unless she feels like wearing her wine rather than drinking it. what a stupid contraption.

This is almost as stupid as this site.

Can I cite this invention as the straw that broke the camel's back and finally made me hit the streets and start strangling random people?

And why the eff does it have writing on it? For 20 bucks it should be advertisement free. This looks like something that would be given away by the hundreds at a pharmeceutical conference.

These stupid looking things have been around for years. those artsy people sell them at wine festivals.

What happens when the whino falls down face first?

Take a look at the picture...anyone else see that it's almost empty. No, he's not had any of it...that's how much can be in there at a time. See when walking, this thing would bump into your chest, and if it's filled up more, or you walk a certain way (see: normal), then you'd be spilling that thing all over. Same thing happens when you walk with a name tag lanyard around your neck...it bumps and bounces. So I guess this is for people who are sitting, always have a wine re-filler nearby, and easily forget where they put their wine.

It just goes to show you what you get when you mix: a salesman, an alcoholic, an engineer, a pseudo-high class person, and lots of stupidity...you get another worthless product...but the salesman lives by the old "sucker born every minute" deal, so that's why these things sell.

This is stupid and useless

My cup would be spilled all over the floor because of my huge breasts

Please. The whole point of holding a wine glass is to avoid having people try to hug you at the company Christmas party.

OK, people, get ready for my tirade on the comments here. Let me start by saying that personally, this design with the printed lanyard does not appeal to me. Also, the "stem gripping" design is cumbersome and the price of 2 for $25 is too high for this model. Now with that said, please consider these VALID POINTS:
1) wine glass holders are indeed popular at wine tastings. Why? to be hands free for tasting notes, holding brochures and NOT leaving your glass behind.
2) when you're walking, without the holder, you'd HAVE to hold the glass. WITH the holder, you also HOLD the glass if there's wine it it otherwise it will slosh.
3) it's for standing still and being able to manage your glass while eating, writing tasting notes and the like when there's nowhere to set your glass
4) it's better than those slotted plates. People forget about the stem hanging down and then the glass goes spilling when people try to set their plate down.
5) It's NOT for drunks or idiots unless you ACT like one.
6) I bought two at a craft show then two more as gifts from a vendor. I have virtually no boobs ... it works great. My friend has HUGE BOOBS and it works just as well. The husband of the couple I bought them for has a beer gut and it works (well the better design I got, not these stem-grippers).
7) Here's what the better ones look like and have all the advantages I described above: http://elegantbags.com/catalog.aspx?Merchant=itsinthebag&DeptID=157183 Mine came in the mail within the week and THEY'RE FANTASTIC!!!
8) I plan to get one for my niece too so she can keep her beverage (whatever it is) SAFELY with her.
Thank you for reading this ... reply if you want, but be nice!

Cheers, Selene

This is perfect for those in wheelchairs who find it difficult to hold things and for those who push those wheelchairs and need both hands free to do so.
