Festival no-no! These sneaky novelty flasks are way too funny
With Coachella just around the corner, we've been reminiscing about the ways we used attempt to sneak alcohol around a festival, unbeknownst to the crew guarding the main arenas.
Unsurprisingly, we opted for simpler methods such as cans in our hoods or the infamous crouching tiger hidden naggin method, which were often discovered after a quick pat down.
Since then, there have been some pretty inventive drink-smuggling methods created for those of us brave enough to sneak drink around the place, and we've rounded up a few of the most ridiculous.
This banana flask may not be the most realistic thing we've ever seen, but if this was stashed at the bottom of your bag, those drink-checkers may just think you have a healthy snack on board to keep those crucial energy levels up.
This one is particularly devious, as who would even think to accuse the humble umbrella of liaising with the demon drink?
The only problem is, this umbrella is not a functioning tool, so if you're at a rainy festival, you may have to forego your own brolly to avoid suspicion.
3. In your camera… your fake camera.
A flask shaped like a camera has been invented, and it's pretty genius if you ask us.
The sneaky novelty flask would definitely get past security, as long as they didn't pick it up and discover that it's weirdly heavy and making a sloshing sound.
The infinity scarf may not be the trendiest fashion item in the world right now, but if that doesn't bother you then this flask could be for you.
1. The tampons
A complete classic, the tampon flask utilises the worldwide fear of periods to its advantage by hosting vials of alcohol in individual tampon wrappers.
We always have a few tampons rolling around our bags, so why shouldn't one or two be filled with wine?
Luckily, most Irish festivals allow booze in the campsites so we don't have to stoop to such extreme measures as some of our American counterparts, but these flasks would make a pretty great gift for the festival lover in your life.
