Because sometimes you really need to open a giant bottle

We inherited this giant bottle opener from Tim’s grandparents. The coolest part about it — besides its giant-ness, of course — is that the bottle-opening part of it is all worn, as if it was used frequently during its residence in Tim’s grandparents’ house.

My understanding is that Tim’s grandparents weren’t big drinkers, but they did like to entertain. Something about this bottle opener — with its well-worn grooves and almost comedic size — tells me Tim’s grandparents knew how to throw a really great party.
