Yeah I remember what he's referring to at Commonwealth Stadium back in the early 90s..they got rid of it for a reason. So he's actually peeing in the circular hand washer? That's so on-brand hahaha
I just love with Staples, that its raining prospects in edmonton. That they have like the best most awesome prospects in the world. Oh and all of the experts that have predicted that the Oilers will bottom out in the Canadian division are wrong because his podcast is so awesome.

Ugh, my first week at university, I walked into the washroom and saw this thing for the first time in my life. I honestly thought it was a communal urinal. I stepped up to it and was about to unzip when I saw normal urinals around the corner. Saved me a lot of embarrassment, though I still die inside thinking of what could have been.

Love the guy crying while washing his hands in the urinal.
I personally avoid drinking anything at games because of bathroom anxiety (unless I am lucky enough to get box seats). I still remember being a kid at the old Winnipeg arena seeing the trough for the first time and being scared. I wedged my way in to try and pee, but with all the dongs within pee-smell of my face and standing in the splash zone, I could not pee no matter how hard I tried to squeeze it out. I just farted and left in embarrassment.
Scarred me for life.

I remember 'The Trough' at The Den at the U of C.
I cannot for the life me imagine who thought that was a good idea. Thank you, but no. I will urinate elsewhere.

I can't remember if it was the Tazmanian Ballroom or the Warehouse, but one of them had a trough too and man I hated using it. Especially on 25cent highball nights... Ugh. Usually full of anything other than urine.....

They have a trough at the Ship & Anchor, and they had one at the Warehouse when it was still around. I could be wrong, but is it not a pretty common option in men's rooms in Europe?

I've seen them in older american establishments but you typically don't see that in new buildings anywhere. Staples is an Edmonton treasure. He's doing fantastic work on behalf of the Oilers organization and I hope to see him one day ascend to Oilers GM.

I remember the Warehouse had it. It was my first time in a club just turning 18, and that was also the first time I ever saw a trough set up. Luckily, the lighting in there was so bad, you couldn't really see much of anything anyways. But still, it's such a bizarre setup.
Kind of appropriate that this was created in Edmonton

100% the Warehouse! Literally the worst bathroom I have been in Calgary AINEC. That damn cow trough was bad enough. Add in a single toilet stall that was always filled with ####/vomit and dedicated to people snorting whatever powder they could up their nose. Eventually the trough would become the puke trough and the smell would resonate on the dancefloor. Just thinking about it is making me gag.
The Warehouse had plenty of things to hate about it, but the men's washroom was easily #1. I feel for whomever the poor schmuck was who had to clean it the next morning, undoubtedly high AF too. Would love to read an AMA by that person.
Since this is now the piss thread, worst trough ever goes to the Tomorrowland music festival at the main stage. It's literally an outdoor trough on the side of the VIP platforms. On a slant and completely in view of everyone. Anyone who has been to Belgium knows it's a country dedicated to pissing.
Spoiler!
