Purely a hypothetical post...I have never knocked a beer off while attempting to sit on a tailgate.   

I knew it was hisowndern fault all along!

I figured this was domestic.........Buck

I am confused. The original post claimed best cold one around, yet I keep hearing the word domestic. These two do not go together at all. Please enlighten me.

I need some further information to make my call, Stump Water.

Was the cold liquid by any chance chambered when the accident occured? That would for me lead to an option 6..

[Stump Water]

Not "chambered" per se.

Unlimbered... yes.

It is my humble opinion this does not fall into a rules category.   This is clearly a case of "Beer Abuse."  Counselors should be called in to help prevent this offense from ever happening again.  "Beer Abuse" is very serious and yet it seems there are still some in our society that take it too lightly.  Beginning with Stump Water, all those involved in this incident should not be allowed the possession of beer until their attitudes change and learn to take better care.

I have since visited the place where this beer fell in tha fall. The ground was nourished. Wild flowers have leapt forth from tha ground.  Mother Earth has shown her appreciation for the libation.

Well, under my breath a #1 and probably a #6 after that (tryin' to keep things friendly and not cause someone undue red face). 'Course if it was a "fizzy yellow beer," no real loss. On the other hand, the worst beer I ever hand was wonderful if it was the last one left!

That's alcohol abuse fer' sure!

[Big John Denny]

Using the new polictical correctness, I would assess no penalty, since the offender is now crying over spilled beer anyway, however, I would arrange for beer grief counselors for all those who participated in or witnessed this horrible beer related incident.

I'm only glad I was not there, though just reading about it has made me gloomy and afraid I might now drop a cold beer on a hot day one day myself.

Spillin' a beer don't get no "attaboy", nor a gold star to stick on yer nose!  My first reaction would be....hand the person a straw and say "Suck it up!"
