This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: Toadmaster;994958I never even knew this was a thing until the internet said so. In nearly 40 years of gaming I've never knowingly set my eyes on a Crown Royal bag used for dice.
Growing up near Berkeley there was no shortage of handy bags for dice available from street vendors and such.

Lots of Marines used CR dice bags back in my day. We drank enough of it after all.

Quote from: Celestial;995005My family has a wide and extensive history of alcoholism, and seeing second-hand exactly what it can do I decided to abstain.  When I was 24 years old, I decided to give it a try.  A friend suggested Southern Comfort.  That was enough to convince me I made the right decision the first time. :eek:

Southern Comfort is for teenage girls. Just sayin'

I drink rarely.

Can not stand Crown Royal, more a vodka man when in the mood. But even I have had a Crown Royal dice bag for ages. Think I got it from my uncle back in teenage Red Box days.

Ive had players hand me crown royal bags, and some sort of long black pistachio bag.


Also one player makes custom chainmail dice bags on order. I haven't gotten one yet.

I enjoy a glass or 4 of CR so its win-win for me. Just finished a bottle of the Apple flavored CR and got a nice green bag too.

I supplied the dice for this. A dice necklace. Effectively a series of little dice bags. The dice can be removed from each mini-bag too.

I've always had Crown Royal bags for my dice. Oddly, I don't remember drinking any though.

If I could fit dice in Patron bottles, I'd use those instead!

It was hysterical in high school when teachers saw we all had Crown Royal bags or Skoal containers for dice.

I've had a CR dice bag since high school. Which means it's older than more than a few posters here. To my knowledge I've never drank any CR though I've drunk a lot of other things including way too much peppermint schnapps in a bar in Uppsala. Now my wife uses the CR bag for her dice while I use a heavy green plastic snap closed box. I use a heavy rubber band as backup to avoid any unfortunate parking lot incidents.

They all wanna be Janis Joplin.

I grew up a few hours from Gimli, where the CR distillery is. Everyone's dad drank Crown Royal and so all the gamer kids had their dice bags. This was the 70's and plush velvet was popular.

Didn't know this was possible. Maybe CR is a Canadian thing.
