I can’t get into Tuivasas “shoey” thing

I still follow the 5 second rule so who am i to judge?
 
He's Australian. They do all sorts of disgusting things!
 
He grew up in west sydney so its not surprising. Most eshays are harmless dropkicks anyway. The worst you'll usually get from them is they'll ask you for a smoke and some money for the bus.

Naw had some try and Mug me and try and steal my kids Stuff while we at the creek. Drop kicks yes harmless no.

4.5% alcohol isn't high enough proof to kill bacteria, there's a reason hand sanitizer is a way higher % of alcohol than that

The risk from having beer in a shoe for 3 seconds probably isn't great, but it's also not going to sterilize or sanitize the inside of your shoe
 
If you don't drink beer out of your rotten shoe after at least half the people in the same room have spat in it then you're a mad backwards cunt, well that would be the narrative if it was more wide spread amongst the West.
 
its weird, i hate shoeys and the idea of them. but i definitely look forward to him winning just to see the crowd get happy and hype. its a gimmick that works imo even if shoeys are fucking gross and weird

Did I say that? No. I said no known harmful human pathogens can survive in beer. Reading is fundamental.

Believe me, I know more about pathogens in beer than you do. Let me know when you get your professional certifications from renowned a renowned brewing institute, sir.
 
I mean I know there’s history behind drinking from a shoe that stems back to WW2 but that ish is soooo gross! I can’t stand watching him drink up someone else’s sweat and athletes foot every time he wins. Does anyone actually like watching him do this? It’s sooo disguising. That is all.

Did he drink from some random guy s shoe?
Yeah it's repugnant and looks trashy for nothing.
 
As I said in a thread on Saturday...

Tai can drink out of whatever he wants, and his gimmick is catching on so good for him, but...

Who are these idiots volunteering to have a wet sock/shoe for the next 4+ hours?
And what the fuck is wrong with them?

I'm sure you do. But are you telling me that 4.5% ABV beer will kill pathogens and germs within the 3 seconds it takes to pour a beer into a shoe and drink it? If so that's some VERY powerful shit!!

I did NOT fucking say that. I said no known human harmful pathogens can survive in beer. I did NOT say it's an instant fucking sanitizer. Can you not comprehend a simple sentence? Jesus man.

Turns out there is actually scientific research on this shit and they have concluded that doing a “shoey” is a bad idea lol

What the hell man? You can't get into it? I get sooo into it. Everytime I see him do it, I have to take my pants off immediately. It really gets the blood flowing - all of his fans are INTO it.

lol - We are talking about drinking beer out of a shoe. My stance has always been that the beer will kill nothing in that shoe. Then you come on with a whole side point of "no pathogens can survive in beer", somehow implying it should make people feel less grossed out b/c there was alcohol in the beer that can kill pathogens,
. Who gives a shit? That has nothing to do with drinking a shoey 3 seconds after beer is poured in it and nothing to do with the discussion, unless you soak the shoe in beer for 24 hours ahead of time I guess.

From your link:
"The positive — and possibly surprising — revelation was that in most instances the alcohol kills much of the bacteria present."
and...
"In fact, the only drink that failed to do so was sparkling white wine or champagne."

Did you read it? “
. Beer (4.5 per cent alc./vol) provided an unfavourable environment for bacteria due to a low pH environment, low oxygen environment and lacks nutritive substances

"A lot of beers, particularly the ones we tested, contains hops ... that can actually inactivate a lot of these organism like Staph," Dr Ho said.
