One Lollapalooza attendee had the best festival drinking hack of all time and pretty much deserves an award for his efforts.

In the video below shared to Twitter, sneaker culture site Nice Kicks wrote, “This guy buried a bottle of vodka inside Grant Park a week before #Lollapalooza and dug it up when he got inside. That’s why he brought out the Timbs.”

Seriously, this man’s brilliance is beyond words. Bravo, sir! BRAVO!
