yesterday we saw a sommelier open a bottle of champagne with a saber. it was cool.

When he did it I wanted you yell out 'Sabrage!!' at the top of my lungs.

I just settled for 'Parkour!!' instead.

I don't understand how they keep from getting shards of glass in the champange -- nm - prayformojo May 20, 11:17 14
- eh, pooping out shards of broken glass never hurt anybody. nm - Dignan May 20, 11:35
- what makes the bobbles in thoos bottles? -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 20, 11:26
- they always let a little flow out to let any bits wash away, and they always check the first glass. (well, should anyway.) -- nm - b. May 20, 11:19
- it's advised to allow a small flow out of hte bottle and check the first glass of champagne for shards. - Diva May 20, 11:19 3
  - perhaps we saw the same show? heh. -- nm - b. May 20, 11:20 2
    - saw this at a cocktail party yesterday. -- nm - Diva May 20, 11:21 1
      - so I see above. I saw it on food network something or other, then saw it done in person some time back. -- nm - b. May 20, 11:23

      - "...enjoy seeing at least a glass of that champagne pour uselessly on the floor as the lip and the cork try their best to take someone's eye out. - JD May 20, 11:44
    - It's like cracking an egg. If you're careful, there aren't any shards or they stay out of the way. -- nm - nubby's-up grill si May 20, 11:31
  - The glass does get cut, but I think your IM is correct. -- nm - Roger More May 20, 11:19
- the force of the carbonation pushes them out -- nm - JenBro May 20, 11:18
DEEVS! - JenBro May 20, 11:17 1
