Shame Shame Shame......Maybe if you were partying like the way we do in NJ you would know.

The Shot Block measures 40”x20”x10” and weighs 300 pounds and lasts about 12 hours.

It's a plain block of ice that we put on a wooden stand. We take a chainsaw(usually) and carve a few groves in it. Somebody will climb up the steps behind the block and pour straight from the bottle, usually flavored vodka down one of the channels and there is someone down below with the mouth on the end of that grove waiting for that delicious, ice cold shot. We also mount a black light underneath it so at night it lights up all cool looking. I'll take pics in August and post them. Heck maybe you will even come out for the paryt to give it a shot!(no pun intended)

LOL-that was good. Party is last weekend of August(mine and my friends b-day's) Do another road trip! We usually have 3 bands and start with 8 kegs, pig pit, hot dog wagon. Just a ton of food and booze. Then whoever goes is welcome to camp out on his property. We usually get a bunch of campers then whoever camps out he makes breakfast for the next morning.

The ice block get very interesting once the sun goes down! So does the party too!
