Putting the beer tab in the can is a bad idea. Those pop tops were everywhere, a real menace if you dared walk around barefoot outside, especially on a beach. I think people were encouraged to drop them in the can as a result.

In 1000 years archaeologists will be digging up pop tops and identifying them as religious symbols due to how common they are found everywhere. That's the default when they don't know what something was for: 'religious artifact' or 'religious ceremony'

“I blew out my flip flop
Stepped on a pop top
Cut my heel had to cruise on back home
But there’s booze in the blender
And soon it will render
That frozen concoction that helps me hang on”
