"Isn't it hard to drink champagne from a flute? Doesn't it come out the little holes before you can get it to your mouth?"

Silly silly penni. You have to plug up the holes first before you pour in the champagne. Examples of acceptable materials are Bazooka bubble gum (pre-chewed, not out of the wrapper) and Silly Putty. Absolutely do not use silicon-based caulk, as it tends to be toxic, although a latex one is acceptable in a pinch.

Note that in the event you are entertaining a large number of guests, a more economical approach is to use piccolos. They are smaller, and, obviously, cheaper. The minuscule fluid capacity of the piccolo can be irksome; however, it serves as an excellent deterrent to guests' over-imbibing before driving home.
