Thar She Blows

Inflatable Bubble Bars

Bounce houses, Sock’em Boppers, blow-up dolls …

Um, things that are inflatable? [Ding, ding, ding. Balloons. Confetti. Awkward half-hug with creepy game show host.]

You’ve just won $20,000 (pretaxes)! What are you going to do with it? Throw a party of massive proportions, of course.

But as much as you’d love to see your boss shoeless in a big air-filled castle, the only thing you suspect she’ll jump for is Jack Daniel’s. Strike a happy medium by renting a bubble bar. French-Floridians Jean and Katy Marc created the inflatable for people who want to add something snazzy to their party.

It’s certainly a conversation piece — it lights up and comes in vibrant colors like hot pink and red — but the bubble bar also holds its liquor quite well. Hidden Plexiglas trays hold bottles and glasses, and the counter works just like any other bar top. Though we don’t recommend using it for body shots.

That would make for one airy situation.
