Maybe he grabbed a basket because he intended to buy a couple of 15 - 20 briskets that he saw in an ad were on sale, but they had temporarly sold out. So on his way out he just chunked the beer in.

Or maybe him and a co-worker had planned on gettin' MAD drunk, but once his buddy got home his bitchin' assed wife told him "Your not going a FUCKIN' place tonight". So he called his buddy on his cell phone and said "Hey man....the kid is sick and I won't be able to make it". So he just picked up a 6 pack instead of the case 1/2 he had planned on.

Or maybe he IS just a lazy fuck.

You never know...........
