Budweiser Beer Rep for BR area?

I was talking to a friend about party balls the other day, it seems that 5-10 years ago you could find them at lots of places in their box in the beer cooler, but now a days they are really hard to find unless you go to the distribution plants.

Anybody ever just cut open the top and dip your cups instead of buying the pump? When I was in college we thought we had a pump, but didnt so we ended up cutting and dipping.
