While you may not be representing your country in the winter Olympic games in Sochi this February, you can at least feel like a winner when you open up a beer with your very own gold medal bottle opener.
While not made of real gold, silver or even bronze for that matter, the Olympic medal bottle opener is made of heavy zinc and unlike those so called "official Olympic medals," your medal will actually serve a useful purpose: opening beers. The gold medal bottle opener comes attached to a red, white and blue striped ribbon that you wear around your neck allowing you to drink just like the pros do.
Let's be honest, you may not be able to play hockey or ski like a champ, but you sure can drink like one. After all, you've got the medal to prove it.
