I love thunder mugs. 

You may laugh at this statement, but when it's a choice between a
"porta-potty" that you share with 7,000 other people or a thunder mug in
the privacy of my own tent......

My first experience with a thunder mug, was a little tradition that took
place after closing night of each new play (little theatre group)... at the
cast party, we'd get sloshed on a thunder mug version of trash can punch.

on stage too often anymore)
