A time-honored tradition when two gentlemen from Vermilion, Alberta haven't seen each other in an extended period of time. The basic procedure is to drop your hand down straight down in a loose fist so your palm and fingers have enough opening to accept an object. Once the object is in hand, one quickly moves their hand from left to right in a rapid, deliberate manner. The issuer of the Vermilion Handshake is not to make eye contact with the other individual - that process is the Aggressive Vermilion Handshake and won't be covered in this module.
Chris & Curtis hadn't seen each other in years, so when they ran into each other at the Exhibition they popped the top on a couple of PBR's and exchanged a quick round of Vermilion Handshakes.
