Budweiser telephone lets you drunk dial, like, for real

We can only hope that the makers of this beer bottle phone actually got Budweiser's permission before slapping its logo on there, but regardless of all that, who can deny the awesomeness here? Okay, so you've got to be "that guy" for it to take your breath away, but we know you're out there somewhere, that guy. Aside from looking like a cold one, it pretty much handles everything else a hamburger phone (or similar) would, but at least this one doesn't require prior knowledge of Juno to be appreciated by your tipsy pals. Get your inebriated dialing on now for just $16.99 delivered.

[Nightmare @ Jul 4th 2008 4:10PM]

I used to like to get drunk and shoot shit now All I wanna do is get drunk and call shit

Jams.Bond age coming?

[Alex Padilla @ Jul 4th 2008 2:10AM]

If I was drunk and I saw this, I'd try to open it thinking it was an actual beer bottle. This can only lead to lost money (but, more importantly, lost hope and beer).

That's pretty cool but it would be even better if it was a Bell's Oberon bottle phone.

[Keith @ Jul 4th 2008 2:12AM]

Ah yes, the silly cheap novelty phone...

[Johnny @ Jul 4th 2008 2:14AM]

Let the drunk dialing begin!

[derX @ Jul 4th 2008 2:15AM]

I have to ask the obvious question, is there an age limit and how easily can I bypass it with a fake ID?

[Stem $ell @ Jul 4th 2008 3:08AM]

Finally a product worthy enough to replace my old rotary 'Giant Oxycontin Pill' phone...

[Paul Curtis @ Jul 4th 2008 4:07AM]

I haven't seen Juno yet, but I remember Tom Hanks picks up a hamburger phone in the film Dragnet!
Also, looking at the pictures, does it say modular 'plub' on the diagram?

[biohazard @ Jul 4th 2008 4:28AM]

seriously... this is not news at all... a friend of mine's had a can of mythos beer from greece phone for 5 years now...

[Nitty C @ Jul 4th 2008 4:50AM]

I see what you did there.

[lavar @ Jul 4th 2008 5:46AM]

This, or an identical product has been available here in South Korea for several months... However, I have only seen it "SOLD" in roadside crane game vending machines where there seems to have been few attempts to win it.

[Maverick Saturn @ Jul 4th 2008 8:05AM]

Wasssssssuuuupppp!!!!

Nothing, just watching the game, drinking a buuud while talkin on the phone.

[Rocketboy @ Jul 4th 2008 9:24AM]

It's no sneaker phone..

I'll wait for the InBev Phone thanx

[EMaster @ Jul 4th 2008 9:53AM]

That is so 1989. I though These novelty phones went out of style when I was 9. God the Ferrari Phone...... ugh

[Bud - Weiser @ Jul 4th 2008 10:09AM]

Sorry, I've got to call 'lame post'... vintage landline telephones are soooo 1980s. Now give me a budweiser cellphone - then it would be newsworthy. Getting pulled for drunk driving and then getting a ticket for not using a handsfree device, priceless.

[derX @ Jul 5th 2008 3:19AM]

xDDDDDDD

Dude, you're soooo full of win. This is the first time I can remember, like, quadruple clicking the [+] button. I felt like I was playing some rapid fire game.

You = win

[Marco @ Jul 5th 2008 12:50PM]

You do realize the button disappeared after the first click right?

[derX @ Jul 5th 2008 1:51PM]

No, I did not realize that at all.

This is the first time I've ever used the site.

Please, go ahead, click my name and see how many posts I've made.

Anyway, again, Bud-Weiser, you're awesome.

[Gabby @ Jul 4th 2008 11:52AM]

They made Coke versions of these back in the 80's - it's completely retro and rather dull to be honest...as the previous commenter said.

[jamesFF @ Jul 5th 2008 12:47AM]

Can you imagine someone picking up a REAL Bud and trying to dial out with it?☺

[Tim Shundo @ Jul 5th 2008 2:53AM]

This may just be really bad de ja vu, but haven't the past couple articles from like, a year ago?

[evelyn @ Jul 5th 2008 1:32PM]

ugh not budwater!

[Brandon David @ Jul 5th 2008 1:56PM]

I totally want one of these, because you know, it would extremely easy to hold between your head and shoulder while dialing. Add non-sobriety to that mix and that phone is as good as gone.

Couldn't they have picked something a little more tasteful like Heineken at least? Come on.

[ShadowKain @ Jul 6th 2008 5:39PM]

...Until you open it up, drunk, and get electrocuted.... FAIL...


@Brandon,

Good luck with your new phone, because you know a beer bottle is the perfect thing to put along side your frat head...

[mattmalignancy @ Jul 6th 2008 10:22PM]

Ha, weak. They definitely should have made it so it would actually dispense beer through a straw in the mouth piece, while you talked on the phone.

[gizmobro @ Jul 8th 2008 3:31PM]

If i caught the right reference there, i gotta throw this in.
"You get us a gig?
No, but I got us a bologna sandwich.
But its just bread.
I lost the bologna!"
