Kotzbecken: the cure against football fever

There are quite a number of reports on the global football fever. If your fever breaks out in Germany then make sure that somebody carries you to one of the tradional beer houses. Most restrooms for Herren (male) come with a Kotzbecken which will provide immediate relief.
Study the picture that you know how to use it properly.

I..I feel so dumb. For the life of me, I can't figure out how to use it.
You sit on it? Vomit on it? Eh?
Hi Carlos,
You may sit on it as well but the Kotzbecken (puking-sink or vomitorium in ancient Rome) comes up to just under chest-level. You might want to use the support bars to climb on it.
Some Kotzbecken even have a wall-mounted ashtray, since it's rather difficult to smoke and throw up at the same time.
Allbest,
brommel
