Ouch. I think the most painful thing was while poor Pompsie and Greta were getting utterly rinsed, you could hear that someone sat near them was hitting bonuses out the wazoo... Sometimes, it just isn't your day...
The woman who served the drinks during prohibition in the underground nightclubs wore feathers around their waist hence the word cocktail for the gentlemen that were served. The drinks they served were not branded, they were a mix drink, but synonymous with the serving waitress.
Must be something in the water... Vegas Matt, Pompsie & Brettski all got crushed today :( Should have waited until the 1st day of Spring to play this game :P
Coquetel was a term for a mixed drink in Bordeaux, which rapidly became 'cocktail' in America. Coquetier is French for an egg cup, the vessel in which Antoine-Amedée Peychaud of bitters fame prepared his mixes. Anglo-American pronunciation rapidly turned it into 'cocktail'.
Hi Chris, You do an excellent job w your videos. I think the split screen is fantastic. It just shows how advanced you have become. Of course you cant please everyone. I like the way you involve Greta in your video, you both take turns and break it up. I also think you should have a live stream Q&A maybe once a month from your home office. See how that goes over. I think you would have many more followers as well. Keep up the good work. Great Job !
There are many theories about the origin of the word cocktail, but the strongest claim is that it is derived from the French word 'coquetier', which refers to an eggcup type measure. Apothecaries used these measures to dispense alcoholic 'tonics' in New Orleans. It's only a small step from 'coquetier' to 'cocktail', especially after you've had a few!
Not surprised bro bet higher never gonna get anywhere playing 5 bucks. 12 minimum if you lose that then up bet to 25 or your never cover your loses or make a profit. I want to see you succeed and freakin WIN
Some claim that the phrase “cocktail” originated in New Orleans, where the creator of a well-known bitters by the name of Peychaud was known to serve a mixed brandy drink in a French egg cup called a 'coquetier. ' Over time, fans of the beverage would westernize the pronunciation, eventually landing on 'cocktail. '
A word that’s very similar to “cocktail” in a lot of ways is “cockroach”. The first and most obvious reason is, well, they both start with “cock”. Whooppee. But the second reason is a little trickier. “Cockroach”, as I’ve covered before here, isn’t just the squishing-together of “cock” and “roach”. In what I believe to be the best pun I’ve ever made, the word is neither fish nor fowl: it began as Spanish cucaracha, then came to England in much the same form, but quickly found itself a problem. The English saw the Spanish word - and it is very clearly a Spanish word - and to them it seemed not so much a Spanish word but a home-grown English word. “However shall we say cucaracha,” asked the English, “this fine word so obviously wrought by British tongue?” They thought about this. “Well,” they reasoned, “it must be not cucaracha, but a compound noun of some sort.” And so cucaracha became cock-roach, despite having nothing to do with cocks or roaches. Surprisingly, there is very little confusion on the general public’s part about this. “Cocktail” is in much the same position. We have, for whatever reason, simply accepted that there exists such a class of beverage as a “cock-tail”, which has no relation to cocks, nor to tails, nor to the tails of cocks, and gone on with our lives happily, only ever pausing for a moment to question what strange language deity bothered to give us such a word before we then turn to far more attractive and important matters. Unfortunately for “cocktail”, its story can only stare enviously at the simplicity of “cockroach”’s etymology. This is a very long, literally incredible story, centred around, of all people, an eccentric Italian spice-trader. It begins with some clay. On the southern border between Spain and Portugal there is a minority Romance language spoken by about 20 000 people. Southern Europe is full of minority Romance language after minority Romance language: Sicilian, Aragonese, Ladino, Tuscan, Asturian, the late Dalmatian, Piedmontese, and so on. What makes this particular minority Ibero-Romance language special is, above all else, that it’s got what is perhaps the best name for any language - which is, if you can believe it, Romannalola. (You can hear it spoken in this Wikitongues video.) Say it with me again: Romannalola. I love it. The Romannalola people were well-known in southern Spain and Portugal for hundreds of years for two things: first, their wine, which surprisingly isn’t important to this story at all; second, their pottery. A full third of the speakers of Romannalola are potters. (It has been argued that this high percentage is due in part to the fact that the sort of people who are likely to still speak Romannalola are also the sort of people who are likely to still be potters, and that in the past it was closer to 10%, but the point is that it’s a tradition and they’re well-known for it.) You may be familiar with kintsugi, a Japanese practice where broken pottery is repaired with gold, like so:

Wow I’ve been there when a machine played with my emotions … 😂😂😂. Next time
The cocktail origin is French, stemming from the word Coquetel meaning mixed drink.
It's not from the ass end of a rooster?
Omg the other machine was loud it made losing worse I’ve been there 😞😞
Good luck Pompsie and Greta. Helena

Greetings from Canada Greta and Christopher sometimes u need to just due the buffets and try again to Win on the slots
Good luck 🍀 my favorite GAME to play ❤Dragon Link
Greta would’ve never let it go this far if she was driving. The approach of a cyborg.
I think it has something to do with the time your supposed to drink it
Dragon link is also my favorite slot machine 💕💕💕💕💕💕 I love dragon link 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Good luck Pompsie and Greta 😊❤Love you both of you ❤️😊
I love dragon stinks...😂
That’s always the worse sometimes it can be tough what machine to pick I usually just go to the one with the highest major try to keep it consistent
Cocktail is derived from French... Coquetel... eventually just cocktail
The name came from non pedigree horses. Maybe the name was because the "cocktail" was mixed instead of pure sprits?
Oh boy. The comments are about to be lit 😂😂😂
Bad luck on this session...just keep pushing forward and put this one in the past. Love your guys content and positivity. Get them on the next!!!!!
Dragon link when they are playing with them those balls drop down i love your channel good luck ❤️💯

Good luck Greta and pompsie!!!!

Exactly!!!

Idk cocktail without looking it up 😂
Dang it! I was going to guess is was originally another language that became something in English.... Oh well
Mama said there would be days like this.
You should look at the number of line pays when you change denominations
Greta you should have told Pompsie to leave that machine $100.00 ago
You should’ve moved machines Pompsie! Like you always push Greta to move 😂
Greta is so patient and very grateful go Greta ❤️😃💯
Lets go>>>>>>>>
Bet high at first 3 r 4 spins then bet low
Cocktail 🍹 is a fixture of combination of alcohol
Let's GOOO!!!
That machine was a big time tease !
Why play a game with 5 lines for 5.00 when you can play 50 lines for the same 5.00 and have a better chance at winning
Exactly!!
Major, Minor, Mini, etc is more the higher denomination you play
It really teased us ugh
Good luck guys ❤
Good Luck!!! 🍀🍀🍀🍀

Cash it and found a better machine
Ugh 😩 not a good machine today
