Happy Hour: Booze Brings Spiritual Awakening and Joy

There are a number of reasons that Crystal Head Vodka completely baffles me, and makes me wonder if someone is totally having a laugh at my expense:

  1. Dan Aykroyd is closely affiliated with this vodka.
  2. The vodka itself comes in a "bottle" modeled after the crystal skull featured in the latest Indiana Jones movie.
  3. Dan Aykroyd appears in a video on the Crystal Head Vodka website explaining the legend of the crystal skull.
  4. Dan Aykroyd explains his decision to fill these crystal skulls with vodka by explaining that vodka brings people joy.
  5. Dan Aykroyd does not once crack a smile during this video.

Personally, vodka brings me hours of vomiting, but I suppose that's just me.

Yeah, Dan Akroyd is a shill for big alcohol now.

He came to a liquor store in Vancouver to promote some brand of tequila once.
