Default Bayou Classic 1082 - Wall Thickness

So I've read some posts here that these 82qt pots aren't nearly as sturdy as keggles... but according to a couple product descriptions I've found (they don't all say) the wall thickness is 18 gauge, which according to some other posts here is the same as a keg's walls (with the skirts being a thicker 14 gauge).

Can anyone confirm wall thickness on the Bayou?

okay... FYI, it's 20 gauge rather than 18. so slightly thinner. reviews though seem to be positive.
