Abstract

The present invention comprises a table which a user can attach to a cooler. The table is generally comprised of a table top, a first pivoting means, a second pivoting means and a leg. The first pivoting means attaches the first end of the table top to a first beam. The first beam attaches the present table to the cooler. The second pivoting means attaches a second beam to the second end of the table top. The second beam is attached to the leg. The leg is vertically adjustable. The leg pivots against the table top and the table top pivots against the cooler.
