Abstract

Abstract A chair that is constructed of a plurality of interconnected tubular frame members with a flexible fabric-like cover covering sections of the tubular frame members forming a back section and a seat section. The chair is foldable from an extended/usable position to a retracted/stowage position. The chair includes armrests and attached to each armrest is a flexible walled container which is insulated to be usable to store beverage containers in a refrigerated condition. These flexible walled containers are joinable together when the chair is in the retracted/stowage position with the joining of these containers facilitating retaining of the chair in this retracted/stowage position. Back pack straps are attached to the back section which permits the chair to be carried on the back of a human being when the chair is in the retracted/stowage position.
