For $75, you can drink booze out of a watermelon this weekend on Dallas' Lower Greenville

They call it "redneck bottle service." And thankfully, it's much less expensive than actual bottle service.

On Aug. 18 and 19, a bar called Truck Yard in Dallas is selling $75 watermelons full of a tequila cocktail. Call it a fish bowl, call it a fruit keg. Call a cab.

Truck Yard -- the outdoor bar in Lower Greenville in Dallas with food trucks parked out back -- has sold its watermelon kegs before. "Because summer," a press release says: "Crowding around a watermelon keg that's doling out deliciously cold margaritas to you and your friends is just about the most summery thing there is."

They're not wrong.

The cocktail is made with tequila and orange liqueur (and some other stuff), and participants who shell out $75 will pour it themselves -- this is redneck bottle service, after all -- from a spigot jammed into the side of the melon.

For groups of three people or more. Available Aug. 18 and 19 at Truck Yard, 5624 Sears St., Dallas, or until the watermelons are gone. Cheers.
