I left my wallet in a taxi in Toronto a couple of years after I worked here and was far more upset about losing my "sourtoe cocktail club" card than I was about the few hundred dollars in tip money that was in it....and my ex-girlfriend has the certificate in a photo album so I guess I'm going to have to head back to Dawson sometime in the future. I can't wait.
@lapdogwilly It was our own car that you left it in which caused a crack addict to bust the window to pieces and steal it. You can have all your stuff back you left behind including the certificate but you never respond to my messages.
trust me , the orGINAL sour-toe , WAS A TRUE THING !!! iT was lost in the 70's !! But a Fellow by the name of , Tony, an old bandit !! lost his toe to frost bite & donated his toe, to the cocktail !! ( IT WAS MEDICALLY PASSED AFTER IT ALL !! TRUE ) BUT THEN , NO-ONE EVER SWOLLOWED THE TOE , EVER AGAIN !! WE JUST HAD TO DRINK THE COCKTAIL , WITH THAT TOE IN IT !!! !!! oRIGIANLLY THE TOE WAS HELD AT THE ELDORADO BAR IN DAWSON !!!
I apologize that it's taken me this long to comment but I passed out. I'm not exactly sure if that means it was the best or worst toe I've had the pleasure of examining but from what I can remember, it was well worth it. The pirate that you have featured in this video reminds me of me awhile back. lol
The "Pirate" ends his revolting severed toe gig at 11 pm and becomes the night janitor at the Downtown Hotel in Dawson City, Yukon. (The very hotel he "performs" in.) He was great fun! Perfectly suited to play Captain Dick! We both loved him and find ourselves quoting him nearly daily!
I had to get pretty sauced before I'd let myself get near that thing. And it really did stink to high heaven! Though I do recommend you give it a try if you're ever in Dawson City!!!
It's Captain Dick's job to record us in one of the MANY log books (I was # 33,000 something) and then he fills out this cute little business card with our names on it as well as a certificate showing that we "did it". I think I also signed some waver thingy that forgave them of any mental illness afflicted upon me following having a severed toe in my drink.... LOL!

Sounds like fun & reminded me very much of when I kissed a cod, drank some Screech and became an honorary Newfie.
