its an interesting opener.
its childish and easy going and defuses any levels of formality.
from my experience anything that grabs attention is an opener... so if your bored this one will prob work LOL!
and yes congrats 4 haveing the balls to pull it of!

i would be interested to know if any of the approaches made using this method were successful in any way. Fair enough it grabs the targets attention, but then you've got to get around the fact that you've just hit them with a bag =S

i hope everyones smart enough not to use that opener lol... next time u think of an opener think from the girls perspective as well

That was hilarious!!!!!

What ever happened to: "Hi"

this is horrible to watch....ur the type of person who should be in a mental hosptal because the next step ifyou dont get what you want is rape. you are an embarrasment to the game

I feel like everybody is hating on this - with very JUST reasons - but I think this could actually work.

If you think about it, you might do this to one of your friends you know... You spot them in public, you get their attention, and say hey...

What if you're opener was this:

(Hit them, you can even reach your arm out and lightly grab or touch their arm or shoulder)
YOU: Hey, I just wanted to act like we were best friends and I knew you or something... (with a big smile)

You never know how that might transition after that... It's not about the opener right? It's about the game after the opener... That could be a VERY alpha male opener and with a smile and the right body language you could exert confidence...

Just my opinion...

I think the issue here is this: Much of the community is opening up to the idea of becoming a natural or at least being more free flowing (functional/situational openers). On the other hand, this opener is not only a pre-mediated pre-scripted routine (and thats fine, I still use those) but its also a bit much. It could work. But 9/10 times, Id bet the guy who did it spur of the moment would be better off than the guy who does it as a routine.

i didnt think it was a bad idea, just the fact that, it was done at the wrong situations, i remember in halloween 08 i was opened by a girl, we was walking the opposite directions and we made eye contact out of nowhere, you know when theres crowds of people and then for some reason you look exactly at this one person right in their eyes, yeah one of those, and next thing i know she grabbed my hand as if we were holding hands, and it was like both of us stopped, and it was so good as an opener, i havent used it yet but will definately give it a try in the summer time

I think it needs polishing refining and some sharpening it could be good but there are many factors in my opinon such as your location the type of people your body language after what you say and so forth it has potential and since some people are reluctant to try it it my become unique nice confidence by the way.

You know, I was walking the other day and the idea of the wack opener came to mind when I saw a girl walk by. If done spur of the moment with a huge grin on your face and you haven't walked out of your way (otherwise why wouldn't you just say hello?) I could see it working.
