around here, everyone drinks Asti Spumante to celebrate.

I'm not a real big fan but it is drinkable.

When I was a kid, I worked bussing tables at a yacht club (i.e. country club).

At banquets......EVERY place setting got a mini bottle of pretty good champagne. After dinner, the diners would adjourn to a different hall for speeches, etc and we would swarm the dining rooms to clean up.

Well........I'd say fifty percent of the people wouldn't even pop their corks so we would collect hundreds of bottles of champagne and stash them in the ice maker......and then smuggle them out at the end of the night (what was left after the smarter waiters snagged their "cut").

I drank a LOT of the ****.

My parents and another couple use to get loaded on that stuff (Cold Duck) a few times a year.

Never tried it. Is it still made today?

I was introduced to Cold Duck many years ago by a black gentleman in the know. Graduated to Blue Nun & the rest is history.

Russ, I know a classy college professor who drinks it to this day. It's not bad but has a lousy image- like shopping at Walmart.

My favorite is Mondoro Spumante about 11 bucks a bottle here in Pa.
