I'm in need of an empty full size 15.5 gal. beer keg, or even something a tiny bit smaller or even 2 kegs of the same or various sizes. They can be in rough shape, I plan to fill them with sand for loading events in Strongman training.
Also, some asshole stole my 750 pound tire from the gym parking lot so I am in need of a replacement in the 700 to 800 pound range.
Thanks.

And to hell with an 800 pound tire. Just take ya an old Polaris to the event, roll it over a few times, when you're finished, just get on it and drive it home.

Lee, rumor has it that 4 or 5 drunk (young) girls stood it up and rolled it away, but its no where to be found anywhere in the area so maybe after that, someone with a truck loaded it into the bed and left with it. Its not that heavy, I flipped it 18 times in 90 seconds, i think that was my best????
Brad, most of the time they are scrap with a hole cut in the side with a chainsaw so the company that has them knows they are scrap, so any old BIG tire would probably do if itas the right weight. Let me know what you can get....

We did something similar at my gr8 grad. Their was a concrete ditch about 36" wide & 24" deep on the edge of the parking lot & I think 6 of us picked up our English teachers Mazda truck & moved it sideways to straddle this ditch. I still don’t know how he got it out but it was gone in the morning.
Paul drop a full keg in the mail and I should be able to get it back to you within a week empty.
