Does anyone remember taking the cap off a bottle and putting it between your finger and thumb, then snapping the fingers to see how far you could fling it? We used to have contests back in the 70's.

Totally agree Danilo...although this game was played in my 20's.

If it is a beer bottle cap, did you know, you must ensure there is no beer on the inside of the cap before you snap it?

Waste of beer is a terrible thing! :D :)

Oh yeah, first lick the cap, then dry it, then snap it. Thanks Traveler....

Well, the more mature among us (wife) put a stop to it, but what she doesn't know won't hurt her. Glad you're still snapping caps, Bruce.
