But what about this? This is 50 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 3: what a me do that is so weird. 51 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 2: This country singer Ali Walker, she did this recently. You 52 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 2: know how we have a shoey where you pour is 53 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 2: it usually beer? 54 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 3: Isn't it ye? Or champagne? If you're a Formula one star? 55 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 1: Yeah? Well Daniel Ricardo started it. 56 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, he got Patrick Stewart to do a shoey a 57 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:19,799 Speaker 4: shoe He's. 58 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 3: A been around Stewart, the actor. 59 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,959 Speaker 4: Patrick Stewart, the actor was did a shoey with I'm 60 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 4: not making this up. Daniel Ricardo encouraged him to do 61 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 4: a shoey in front of the crowd. 62 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 3: How weird. This is an Australian thing, though, isn't it. 63 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 2: You pour alcohol into your dirty shoe, into your your sweaty, 64 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 2: dirty shoe, and drink it. Well, what about this? This 65 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 2: is another step. This is an American thing. This is 66 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:46,079 Speaker 2: where and this woman did it. You pour a beer 67 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 2: not into a shoe, but into the mouth of a catfish. 68 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 2: They do this in Nashville, and then you pour that 69 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 2: down your throat. You pour a can of Budweiser down 70 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 2: the neck of the dead catfish, and then you pour 71 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 2: the soiled contents down your own throat. 72 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 1: It might actually make budwise it taste good. Well. 73 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 2: The tradition began apparently when the Detroit Red Wings used 74 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 2: to throw an octopus there's an ice hockey team onto 75 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 2: the ice to symbolize the fact that team needed eight 76 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 2: playoffs yeah, to win the Stanley Cup. So then the 77 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 2: tradition of throwing a catfish and ice, which means maybe 78 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,519 Speaker 2: I have to win once onto the ice. And then 79 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 2: this then became a semi regular ritual where you'd pour 80 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 2: beer down a catfish and drink it out. 81 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,959 Speaker 4: It's interesting now traditions were drinking. What about the yard glass? 82 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 4: And I bear this. I bring this up because your 83 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 4: son's twenty first is this weekend.
