In Los Angeles, tequila poured from drinking fountains

The fact that this year's National Tequila Day fell on Monday did not bother the company Jose Cuervo, the famous manufacturer of this strong drink. Why not diversify the beginning of the week with free tequila, the company decided, and alcohol flowed like a river.

Fountains with free "silver" tequila Jose Cuervo instead of water appeared in the Hollywood & Highland mall (pictured), Venice Beach and the iconic gay bar The Abbey in West Hollywood. They started work around noon, and by two o'clock in the afternoon, up to three hundred people had tasted tequila at each of them.

Those who were already 21 years old on that day were given cold tequila to drink for free, but the Jose Cuervo employees, who were on duty next to the fountains, did not offer salt and lime. Such a tasting, of course, was not easy for fans of freebies.

To approach the fountain, it was necessary to fill out an exemption form and present an identity card. Near the "sources of pleasure" there was always a security service.

Despite Monday, at peak hours, those wishing to try a drink for free had to stand in line for at least 15 minutes. But celebrating the National Tequila Day, residents and guests of Los Angeles were more than satisfied.

Here are some photos and videos from social networks.
