These disturbing images come from a Trip to Branson, MO several years ago. I found these gems on my computer and felt the need to share.
Hawaiian shirts are a noticeable trend, along with pants that are too short, with white tube socks in painful sight. Cameras are always around their necks, video cameras in hand, and huge bags toting their free snacks are always at their sides. Exhibit A is a prime example of your average Branson tourist. I like to break tourists down into "sub-groups", if you will. These people would fall into the "Show Go-ers".
Your typical show attendee will be older in age, more likely with their lifetime spouse or same sex friend that they have met through their local Rotary club or Red Hat Society. Sometimes, they travel in packs, much like a herd of sloths. These groupings are much louder, and they carry wadded up tissues in their purses and back pockets. They talk about how disrespectful the youth of today are, and how when they “were that age” one would NEVER wear such a thing or Speak out of turn. They gripe about not being able to get their senior discount at every living turn, and speak about how hamburgers only set them back 10 cents in 1952.
Gotta love the fanny pack. These are very popular, not just in the tourist areas of the Ozarks, but all around. Hulk Hogan would be proud.
Pantsuits are common too, especially in floral prints. I know these are across the board, but I saw so many on this trip to Branson, I had to document them.
Please note Exhibit A. Not only does the jacket look a wee bit snut, but the pattern looks like vomit.
On Exhibit B, it's just too much floral on too much body. Also note the orthopedic sandals in a stylish, non-chalant WHITE with a black pantsuit...HEY! The top is Snowy White, and the bottom is snowy white. This woman KNOWS how to match.
