Yes, I spent a lot of time in your Germany. I was deployed there every 6 weeks for two weeks at a time and once for 6 weeks. I don't know if the planner for that war game was an idiot or a genius. They made a war game in the middle of Oktoberfest so they shut down the war game for a week but kept everyone there.
idiot or genius depends if he participated, also at that time oktoberfest wasn't that known outside germany and close by unless was enthuasist, nowadays it's globally known.

Never been there. Overpriced tourist trap. You can buy the same beer at each supermarket for a fraction whileit offers not much else then any other local funfair... only more rides and tents... have i mentioned overpriced?

well harvest festivals are a thing in any agricultural area so....you'd find some stuff like that a lot around the end of summer and early autumn

not sure oktoberfest actually is a harvest festival though

Hold your horses. I strongy doubt that a empty mass weights 1.35 kg. More like 0.35 maybe.
She's probably holding about 14kg, which is quickly tiresome already.
those are big and thick glasses.

oktoberfest is beerfestival where women and girls carry as many beers (in glass not in bottle) as they can to be tables.
halloween is a harvestfestival where children dress up and sing songs and people have to pay for it whit candy

For how long? Even agrees here and define the weight of a filled stein as 2.4 kg.

A full one-liter dimpled glass stein should weigh approximately 5 pounds or 2.25 kg. You do the math.

that's why i hypotized .35 which is a damn lot for a glass. I've been in Munich and drank a lot of masses. Empty glasses are by no mean heavy.
well tell that to ppls who leave empty bottles into nature.

those glasses need to withstand a lot, there are literally 1000s of ppls and can't risk that glass gets broken since it's basically non-stop serving etc beer to thirsty (mildly said) customers.

heh movie's have given people the idea that glass bottle's and windows are flimsy and break easily, that and fine glassware like wine glasses

i'd say you could beat a man to death whit some off the glasses used before it breaks

Next you say, I can't shoot a few 5.6 or 7.62 mm at a car and it makes boom.:cry::cry::cry:

And as always the glass you don't want to break, breaks and the ones you wanted, need a lot of work until they do.:p

normal beer glass is durable and those are extra durable.
yeah the average beer glass would shatter 50/50 i'd say if dropped empty, the more durable ones won't shatter unless thats what you intend to do whit it, it their dropped at most you'd break off the ear if it falls on that side or you'd get a small chip out off the edge off it
