mattress for sale?
yesterday, driving along golf rd, i passed the mattress factory store. standing outside the store was a man dressed as a mattress dancing around. and by dancing, i mean he was seriously getting down...running man and all, and there wasn't even music.
does a dancing mattress make you want to buy one?
Comments
Whoa, how does that work? And did he have an audience?

A dancing Mattress isn't such a bad idea. Compare it to 4 green ninja Turtles dancing in front of a grocery store in amman Jordan trying to create more Baba Ghanooj sales.

Heck, yeah. Makes me want to jump on the sin wagon. Okay, not really, but I couldn't pass up the opportunity to reference the Dixie Chicks.

In my hometown, a guy dressed as a chicken used to dance alongside a busy road to attract customers to a restaurant. He was famous for his dancing. It was extremely vulgar -- heavy thrusting involved -- and apparently caused 2 traffic accidents. When police officers banned the guy from dancing, the restaurant was flocked with people out to support him.

If you're brave enough, do a search for Jessco White. Known as the "Dancing Outlaw," Jessco has been featured on national television for the sale of his own line of videotapes that feature Jessco huffing superglue and dancing on the roof of the dog house behind his trailer in Boone County, WV. He's West Virginia's cultural ambassador.

Can't forget about the Naked Cowboy, either. Google that guy.

Doesn't make me want to buy one but it does make me ponder the thought of becoming a dancing mattress!

Jessco affirmation: Cynthia, a librarian at Mary Baldwin College, confirms that the Dancing Outlaw is the most requested video in the library's collection.
