Over this pretty weekend we decided to make a little visit to the quaint town of Ponchatoula. The Louisiana Strawberry Festival(more commonly called the Tangipahoa Mouthbreather Convention) was an eye-opening lesson on what is wrong with America.
Don’t get me wrong, there were plenty of GREAT ATTRACTIONS such as:
The $1 freak show of 2 headed animals.
The FREE BIBLE booth.
The TRASH WATERFALL(this isn’t even a garbage can – it’s a sink).
And don’t forget the dude with NUTSACKS on his EARS.
This dude had nutsacks on BOTH of his ears. I didn’t get to snap a photo of the other ear, but that one was even bigger. Of course, you can’t spend the whole day just gazing at nutsacks like these prisoners(off the leash) did right in the middle of the festival.
Sometimes you should try the local cuisine like these folks did. Treat yourself – you deserve it.
There were also plenty of BIKERS and REDNECK folk that are less common in New Orleans, but flourish in this climate.
Which brings us to 4WHEELERS! Everyone was driving around on 4Wheelers.
And don’t forget the THUGS. A festival celebrating strawberries would not be complete without them. This SCARFACE ensemble is this guy’s best outfit(the latest in festival-wear).
Metairie GUIDO thugs. You should’ve heard their accents.
THUG RIDES: $2
In closing, don’t skimp on the loaded fries. You’re worth it.
PS: If you look like this – don’t breed.
Love it.
