    In 1996 I went to Bike Week in Daytona with some friends and had a great time. I brought back one six pack of bike week beer just as a souvenir. I put it on the shelf in my garage and didn’t think much about it. 5 or 6 years later I noticed one can missing. At the time I had 5 acres of grass to cut and my bored 80 something year old Grandfather would come over and ride the John Deere and cut it. He always got one beer out of the fridge when he was done to “wash the dust down”. That particular day I guess I didn’t have any of my normal Budweiser in the fridge so he grabbed a warm 5 or 6 year old can beer and “washed the dust down”. I don’t think he really cared it was skunked on steroids, because it accomplished his goal. I still laugh occasionally while thinking about my Grandad drinking that beer.
