It just dawned on me... I know how this was invented...
So, during the game, well into the second case of beer, one of the guys put a jockstrap on his head. In an effort to control the remote (remember, lots of beer), he slipped the remote into the strap. Now the remote had some velcro on it as the owner of the TV sticks the remotes onto the TV (when you drink lots of beer, you can knock the remote off the top and it is a bear with lots of butt crackage to get behind the TV to get it.) Well, the velcro stuck in strap. It was much better than having to go to the TV to get them. Hence a product was born.
