Fewer shots.
Shots is a countable noun.
Very few fun facts do not concern correct grammar.

Fun fact , fewer and less used to be used interchangeably, but then some 18th century dullard decided that it would help them identify members of the in group if they adopted a convention where one was used for countable nouns and the other for uncountable. By the late 20th century normal people were again using the words interchangeably, but then the supermarkets use of less on signage alerted this fact to the sort of people who want to become parish councillors. Now how people use less is once again under attack from Daily Mail letters writers and other types who don't know the difference between actual grammar rules and pointless pedantry. I really wish there were less of these smug ******** around wasting peoples time.

The depositing of glass bottles into street recycling containers in banned in many areas of Germany between the hours of 12.00 to 14.00 Monday to Friday. It's so people having their lunch or taking a nap aren't disturbed by potential noise.

I wish the collection of recycling was banned between certain hours. Every other Friday morning I get woken up between 6:15-6:30 by the noise of all the recycling boxes being collected and tipped into the lorry. Bloody ridiculous time of day to be doing it.
How do you travel south to Oklahoma?
