A woman was dubbed "a Christ-like figure" after sneaking a bottle of wine into a music festival in a hollowed-out loaf of sourdough bread. Alexandria Funnell, 34, went to see the band Bon Iver at Sidney Myer Music Bowl on Friday 3, March, 2023, with her friend, Lauren, 34, and didn't want to spend the night queuing for drinks at the bar.
She came up with an ingenious way to save time and money - buying a $1.75 load of bread and hollowing it out to hide a $15 bottle of cabernet sauvignon. Alexandria claims nobody suspected a thing as she poured the wine from the bread into red plastic cups - as concert goers were allowed to bring in food.
Social media users have compared Alexandria pouring wine from bread to a scene from the bible and have even called her Jesus. She even used the hollowed-out bread to make cheesy garlic bread when she got home.
