The Wine Rack bra |
It's easy to drop serious cash on booze at shows — especially if you're buying several rounds. What's even more frustrating is that many venues don't have the best selection, either.
But there are multiple products that will help you get around this issue. While we would never condone violating venue policies to avoid paying $12 for a beer, we present here, for your amusement and edification, 10 of the best items for sneaking booze into a concert.

The Wine Rack
Cost: $29.95
We wore this brilliant piece of lingerie to an Atoms for Peace show last
October and experienced nothing short of drunken bliss. The Wine Rack
allows you to take up to 25 ounces of your favorite booze in your bra.
Oh, and it increases your chest size by two cups. The downfall to this
multipurpose bra is that it's a sports bra — and every woman knows you
can't wear a sports bra with all shirts. With the Wine Rack especially, a
full coverage shirt is required. Otherwise, security will know
something's up with your ta-tas.

The Beerbelly
Cost: $29.95
Unlike the Wine Rack, the Beerbelly is unisex. But when women wear the
80-ounce sack of booze, they look pregnant instead of bloated. What
makes this odd drinking contraption so stealth is that the belly
actually feels like skin to the touch, making it easier for security to
overlook. But if you get patted down, the straps will give you away, so
use the belly wisely. Resembling a colostomy bag, the bag of booze won't
look natural under tight fitted clothes. So if rocking the pregnant or
bloated belly look is your style, loose shirts are key.

The Sunscreen Flask
Cost: $9.99
Hiding alcohol in your sunscreen is best when going to an outdoor event,
like a music festival. Sunscreen is one of the most common items
brought into outdoor concerts — especially ones that last all day — so
it's easy for sunscreen to go unnoticed. But, security guards are
getting smarter: Security at FYF Fest last August was adamant about
checking sunscreens.

Binocular Flask
Cost: $24.99
The advantage of the “Barnoculars” Binocular Flask is that you're not
limited to one type of booze. These ultimate beer goggles allow you to
bring 16 ounces of alcohol in each lens. Whether the two-in-one flask
actually helps or distorts your vision (and judgment), a good time will
be had either way.

The Camera Flask
Cost: $14.99
This high-tech party accomplice is about as stealth as it gets. The
camera flask looks extremely legit, making it a fantastic disguise.

Tampon Flasks
Cost: $14.00
The most important thing to keep in mind when using these tube-shaped
flasks is the fact that men cringe at the thought of such feminine
products. In other words, it's a wise move to let a male security guard
check your bag if possible. What better way to freak out the security
dude than showing him the army of tampons in your purse?

The iPhone Flask
Cost: $8.95
OK, so it doesn't look exactly like an iPhone. But, given the right
circumstances, it's possible this phone flask could work, even if a
fake smart phone is intrinsically more obvious than, say, a fake tampon.
The twist-off top is located at the top of the phone underneath a
plastic clasp, which is what makes the iFlask a clear impostor.

The Lipstick Flask
Cost: $14.99
Small enough to slip into the smallest of purses, the Lipstick Flask is
another low-profile item that would likely be overlooked by security.
The fun-sized flask holds four ounces of booze, making it perfect for
on-the-go drinking. Keep in mind, however, that one item security has
been known to look out for is lip balm, so this flask may raise a red
flag.

Flask Bangles by Cynthia Rowley
Cost: $225.00 – $365.00
The best part about these designer “flask bangles” is that you have a
choice between purchasing one made of either actual silver or 24-karat
plated gold. The downside to these high-end flasks is that they cost
what some people make in one paycheck. Putting the price tag aside,
however, the bracelets are pretty inconspicuous. Made by designer
Cynthia Rowley, the chunky bracelet flasks easily pass for a trendy
women's fashion accessory.

The Pimp Cane Flask
Cost: $69.95
Although the official name of this flask is the “Brandy Smuggler Walking
Cane Flask,” we felt the “Pimp Cane Flask” was a more accurate
description. Holding up to 10 ounces of booze, the cane can support up
to 250 pounds, making it perfect for those nights you can't walk
straight. And in terms of getting through security, when was the last
time your pimp cane was checked? We'd imagine never.
