Pre-Lollards: The great pub winnovation poll!

On the Lollards show three weeks ago, we promised a poll to let you decide WHICH of the fantastic winnovations we ideated in the PUB FOCUS GROUP would most improve your pub experience. Here, at last, is that poll – please pick your favourite three ideas and we will announce the results on tomorrow’s FINAL SHOW* of Freaky Trigger and the Lollards Of Pop.

Pick the THREE best WINNOVATIONS to improve the pub experience!

  • Forced transvestisism in pubs to prevent fighting (56%, 19 Votes)
  • A boardgame like RISK involving winning table space in a pub (50%, 17 Votes)
  • Retractable chairs under every pub table (35%, 12 Votes)
  • Metal tables with a magnet on each glass to hold them in place (32%, 11 Votes)
  • A glass with a smaller top than bottom to avoid spilling pints (like a decanter) (29%, 10 Votes)
  • A pub for adult babies serving drinks in sippy cups (18%, 6 Votes)
  • Pews in pubs (18%, 6 Votes)
  • Kneeling down in pubs to drink to save chair space (9%, 3 Votes)
  • Plastic anti-spill trousers available from the condom machine (9%, 3 Votes)

    I can think of a couple of pubs with pews in them. They do improve a place.

    “A glass with a smaller top than bottom to avoid spilling pints”. Hmmm. We all know how successful beer bottles are at disgorging their contents over the table at the slightest provocation. Call yourself scientists!

    toppled pint glass = ALL IS LOST. toppled beer bottle = you lose a glug or two depending on reactions.

  6. still the introduction of “a glass with a smaller top than bottom to avoid spilling pints” = like a bottle?

    Often the best innovations come from older ideas, like this ‘bottle’ invention, clearly a forgotten ancestor of our GLARAFFE.
