Ten on Tuesday: Redneck Things at Country Concerts

Cam and I went to the Brooks and Dunn concert in Cincinnati this week (more pictures of our day in Cincy will come)--it was awesome! 

Of course, I couldn't think of a better top ten Tuesday than the redneck things you see at a country music concert.  Here's a sampling of what we saw and overheard from this rowdy crowd (sorry some are blurry, I tried to take covert pictures. Also in no particular order):

1.  Ridiculous Trucks.

Truck bed made from the front of a semi, and then put on a regular truck (with smoke stacks, of course). 

 Yes, that tarp ducktaped this 1994 beauty is filled with water and ready to be a genuine redneck hot tub.  Don't believe me? Please take note of the water splashing out of the right side of the truck and the fact the interstate is wet only around the back of this truck...

2. Shirtless Men with Sagging Pants

 No shirt, no shoes, no problem in this Bengals lovin' bus.

3. Cut off Demin (generally with Cowboy Boots)

 We even saw a little lady in overalls with large spurs. Awesome.

 
4. Bongs made from Water Bottles. 

I wish I was kidding, but it was reefer madness for the kids (and 70 year old man) next to us.

which lead to Number 5: 

5. Bad Decisions with Biker Cougars. 

I would have taken a picture, but it would have been so obvious I would have clearly started a fight.  One of the 19 or 20 year old high  kids next to us (who were wearing American flag cut offs by the way) decided the 50+ year old woman standing to their left (with a Harley Davidson tank tied up to be a sports bra) was quite the catch, so they started dancing and ended up kissing the night away, about 3 feet from us.  That, my friends, is why friends shouldn't let friends do drugs.

6. Our Next Hairstyles:

his (the mohawk mullet)...

 ...and hers (does this have a name--the skunk? Spilt a bottle of bleach?)

7. Cowboy Hats Made from Beer Boxes:

It really was made of cardboard, and was hand-stitched (literally) to create the shape.  I wish I could make this stuff up...

8. "Ass-less Chaps"

Best story overheard: "the girl had on ass-less chaps, and she led a line of men to the concession stand like the pied piper."


7. Cut-Offs

Okay, okay. I decided to take a picture of one of the more buff guys, because who wants to see the normal cut off wearer--a burly man sweating in his cut-off flannel?

 
9. Faux Statutes

Nothing is classier than when the venue has faux  Romanesque statutes, supported by beams, lining the top.

10. Tattoos Depicting Dead Animals: 

 Let's hope his girlfriend likes deer carcasses as much as he does.
