[edit] In the United States (or at least the Southern US)
The item in question is called a "coozie." and they are often used. V. Joe 00:24, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Stubby cooler v's Stubby holder
- "stubby cooler" sounds to me like a partial Americanism. I'm Australian and I've only ever heard them called stubby holders. Cooler isn't a general term in Australia either - coolers are eskis. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 128.42.167.42 (talk • contribs).
- Interesting. Which state are you in? In Queensland I have heard them called both. "Stubby cooler" came naturally to me when I started the page.

- I just did a quick Google search by "stubby holder" and "stubby cooler" for pages from Australia and got 38,000 and 711. This isn't a definative test, but maybe there would be some merit in discussing whether it should be moved. A move proposal could be proposed if you are so inclined.

- Maybe we call it a Cooler because it is generally hotter in QLD than down south. Just guessing though and it is interesting. I would be happy to support a move proposal. I will add the stuuby holder reference in the meantime. -Parasite 03:08, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
