Be it a naked torso of the opposite gender or a "Kiss the cook" slogan, the comedy apron has never failed to underwhelm.
We were thus indifferent to hear that a newcomer had entered the comical cookware arena: the tactical BBQ apron. However, while it might still fail to raise a titter, the tactical apron does bring more to the grill than its comedy brethren: a multitude of pockets, clips, "hanging utility hoops", large and small pockets will help keep your hands free to ruin perfectly good meat and spill your salad (/beer).
The apron's suppliers ThinkGeek.com are quick to warn potential customers that "the Tactical Apron is not intended for use in combat against anything other than a grill or smoker. It will not prevent injury from shrapnel, bullets, Pokemon, or other projectiles". The jokers.
