Those drunken Carpenters.

You know it couldn't have been the roofing crew, with their stellar reputations.

No, it was used for the Air containment and increased R-Value by the insulators.

Re: Beer cans hidden under decking on re-roof

That's what my Old man used to drink (the pull tab cans) when I was a kid in the 80's, but I never have seen those brands before.

Re: Beer cans hidden under decking on re-roof

The old pull tabs from very old pop and beer cans used to be completely circular and they worked very well as a replacement for Quarters in the Chicago Parking Meters.
