Bill's Guide to Beer Opening

I have been challenged to not open a beer for myself the same way throughout the duration of the trip.  I will look for unique ways to open beers for myself.  Those who know me, are aware that I tried to do this on the last trip but the below equation was true:

Beers to Consume > Unique Opening Options

If the left side of the equation is to remain constant, I will need more recommendations for the right side of the equation.  Please post recommendations below.  I need to start practicing.

    The rim of the car tires? What if at every stop, you pick up a new key chain bottle opener or two? Does that count?

    Day 1: Beer #1 was outsourced to bar staff. Beers 2 & 3 were Sam Summer cans brought from home, so no opportunity yet.
    To everyone who has posted: Great ideas (except for Jill's).

    A lighter.
    Not for nothing....just an observation but it seems to me the right side of the equation is out weighing the left. Just saying!

    What about a tire iron (hopefully opening your bottle is the only reason you use this on your trip), street sign, or toothbrush?
