Concerts, festival, sporting events - if you're going to any event that requires security you can guarantee to be paying through the nose for a bottle (or plastic cup) of beer.

Of course many scheming punters get around this by sneaking in alcohol in trousers, bras, or by whatever means are available.

This Turkish football fan came very close to becoming the master of such shenanigans when he attached 24 (by our count) bottles of beer to his person.

Unfortunately for him, a security guard noticed the bulging, waddling giant struggle to get through the turnstiles and gave him a thorough pat-down.

Maybe next time.
