Seriously?

Unfortuantely I didn't think to carry my camera all those years in the restaurant biz.
To elaborate: if one looks solely at the random and unexpected failure of a pint glass, this particular failure occurs about 50% of the time.

Half the time?

No he said 50% of the time.

I've been in this biz for 14 years myself and have only seen this happen once. Amazingly on that occasion, the glass remained in tact. I would certainly classify this in the "uncommon" category.

And those that say they have seen God are called liars or story tellers. See what I just did there?

Those darn high gravity brews!

I had this happen when I was waiting tables at a steakhouse once. We used to chill our mugs after they came right out of the dish tank, so there was massive thermal stress on them. I ended up with one having the bottom just fall right off while I was approaching the table. No cracking sound, nothing, just popped off.

Way to reach for the low hanging fruit. That is kind of my point in reverse.

Simply stating the opposite of what someone said does not negate it.
I don't have pictures and I don't remember how often I have seen a glass crack in half for no reason, but it was often enough for my first reponse to the picture to be "Yeah, and?"

"and behold, he turned water into beer"

Cheesydemon3, That would be my kinda God!

Actually, the op did turn the water into beer, it just wasn't instant.

Now I know this is not the case for the OP, but I used to bar tend and something like this happened to another bartender. We were at the same bar and he had run out of margarita glasses, so he pulled one out of the drying rack. The glass was still hot, so as soon as he poured his drink it shattered like an explosion.

Anyways to OP, at least it didn't shatter.

This thread cracked me up.



Sorry; back to my beer.
