Now That's Class!

Any guesses as to what these are? I'll give you a hint. We were visiting Brother G and his wife V last night, and they were telling us about their recent trip to South Carolina to visit TC's folks who rented a condo down there this winter. While there, the MIL & FIL insisted that they visit Dolly Parton's Dixie Stampede.

At this point you're probably thinking "Oh, so these are the cheesy souvenirs from that visit." You're partly right.

Apparently, when you order wine with your dinner at the Dixie Stampede, it comes in these white, plastic cowboy boots. Which means that sometime during the design of this establishment, someone thought this would be a good idea. And enough of the people in charge agreed with them to make it happen.

The mind boggles.

Wild. I never could have thought that up in a million years! So bizarre.

I heard an interview on CBC with Dolly Parton (I think it was with Jian Ghomeshi) and I kind of like her. The music, not so much. But she's a really tough and likeable person.

Alternately, the person that thought it up had enough authority in the establishment, that no one had the cajones to stand up and tell him what a bizarre idea it was.
