(NAPSI)-When men need a hand with something, there are certain things that help them get a grip. That's the finding of a recent survey conducted by Pennzoil to celebrate the launch of the first quart-sized motor oil bottle with an easy-grip handle. Men across the country were asked about getting a handle on sports, cars and life in general, and here's what they said:
Sports
When it comes to sports, it seems men feel Kobe Bryant rules the courts and Joe Montana is the all time king of QBs. Other findings include:
• The stadium food that is hardest to handle: Polish sausage with sauerkraut (29 percent), chili cheese dogs (20 percent), nachos with everything (16 percent), and beer (10 percent)
• The stadium and fans that are hardest for opposing fans to handle: Oakland Raiders, The Coliseum (21 percent); Philadelphia Eagles, Veterans Stadium (14 percent); and Kansas City Chiefs, Arrowhead Stadium (11 percent).
Automotive
Many of men's automotive repair decisions are driven by convenience. For example, Pennzoil's new quart-sized bottle with easy-grip handle may have helped "changing the oil" rank as one of the easiest auto maintenance tasks on the survey. Additional results include:
• The most difficult driving condition to handle: Sleet and ice (64 percent), fog (17 percent), and rain (10 percent)
• The distraction that's hardest to handle when driving: Talking on the cell phone (31 percent), kids fighting (30 percent), and heavy traffic (28 percent).
Life
The majority of respondents agreed they wished they could get a better handle on finances and their weight. In addition, there was one thing that more than a quarter of respondents said needed a handle, but didn't have one: a toddler. Other results include:
• Things in a man's life that must have a handle: Toolbox (57 percent), lawn mower (56 percent), briefcase (42 percent), toilet (33 percent), and cooler (25 percent)
• The greatest handle of all times: Door handle (44 percent), toilet handle (20 percent), and love handle (15 percent).
