BBC – Lincolnshire Student Life – Beer scooters – myth or reality?: “As hard as you try, you cannot piece together your return journey from the bar to your home. The answer to this puzzle is that you used a beer scooter.
The beer scooter is a mythical form of transport, owned and leased out to the drunk by Bacchus the Roman god of wine. Bacchus has branched out since the decrease in the worship of the Roman pantheon and bought a large batch of these magical devices.

Gave Bacchus a run for his/her money tonight but don’t recall the winged scoot arriving to pull the phat out of the fire… but I really like the concept!

Yeah, he only serves the UK though. Not knocking your abilities, but I think the market is larger over there.

I think perhaps I figured it out… since I had been quaffing Retsina and Uzo at a Greek festival it was Dionises to the rescue on his/her scoot. It helps to know where you start from to know where you are going!

Whew! Better than hitching a Bajaj ride with Shiva I’d say!
