If I remember correctly, some of them would give out books of matches for free if you pressed a button. They were an important resource for GenX children up to no good.
I was younger than ten when I realized that, if you can flick a bottle cap, you can flick a spinning ring of fiery fuckery… ^(by taking one match, bending it around to the strike strip and folding the lid open to pinch it between finger [some prefer middle, others ring] and thumb, then hold it above your shoulder next to your ear and flick with your elbow as reticle)
Don’t do this in a restaurant. Please.
Also, if you can’t yet do a bottle cap… Start there. FFS.
Hold your hand like you were going to snap your fingers. Now, place a bottle cap on its side, facing your pinkie, with its bottom edge pinched between your finger and thumb. Sight down your forearm, and fire! Practice makes, well, mayhem?

I’m intrigued by your comment, but I’m not following. What am I doing with the bottle cap?

What do you call a car cigarette lighter?

I can hear the hiss of too-curious fingertip. 🤢
