I can't say I know much about where the term "pot" comes from, but I do know the different beer glass terminology in QLD v NSW can be potentially dangerous.25 odd years ago I walked into the Halekulani Bowls Club and asked how much it was for a pot. The young "man mountain" behind the bar leans across, puts his face to mine and quietly growls " What the **** did you just say to me? Get out or I'm gonna come over there, drag you out and belt **** out of ya." Needless to say I was shocked at the big fella's poor attitude but luckily realized where the confusion lay. As soon as i said I was from QLD the tension went from his face. By the time I went on to tell him I only wanted a glass of beer and not a bag of weed he was all laughs and smiles.He shouted me a couple of SCHOONERS and was the perfect host for the rest of the afternoon. Phew.
