My, my my...
Manning an "open to the public Christmas display" with one area of the display named "Harley Land" sure can get the visitors talking.
As most here know, I have been busy for the past while with a drive-thru Christmas display. What I failed to mention is the display is sectioned off into themes, one of which is "Harley Land".
(Santa, Mrs. Claus and friends all wearing leather and sunglasses etc.)
Harley Land has always been one of everyone's favorite areas of the display so it is set up yearly.
This year tho, "Harley Santa" was wearing a helmet, (never has before) AND his helmet had a "No MB" emblem on it, (even Santa won't go to MB anymore)
Plus a flying pig was added to Harley Land this year (yes an animated pig with wings...NO, not a real pig LOL)
The pig was holding a sign in his mouth that read...
"Myrtle Beach =
When Pigs Fly".
At last count there have been approximately 8,000 visitors to the display. My husband and I are part of a group that meet and greet every one of them. No one brought up MB or the anti-MB additions to Harley Land to any of the visitors, but boy the visitors sure did bring it up !!!!!!!!!
Thus I can officially CONFIRM that MB's socialist, anti-tourist, lower than gutter rats reputation (the visitors words, not mine) IS known world wide.
And remember, most of the visitors are FAMILIES. The very people MB swears they will replace us with.
Here is a partial list of where people were from that brought up MB to us. (These are just the few I can remember. There were TONS more)
Ohio
Seattle, Washington
Vancouver, Canada
Montreal, Canada
Los Angeles, California
San Diego, California
Camp Pendleton
Bakersfield, California
Las Vegas, Nevada
Colorado
Virginia
Florida
Michigan
New York
Louisiana
Connecticut
Maine
Puerto Rico
Illinois
York, PA
Lancaster, PA
Pittsburgh, PA
Phillie, PA
Tennessee
Kentucky
Utah
Alaska
Hawaii
Mexico
Texas
Georgia
Mississippi
North and South Carolina of course...(hundreds of cities represented between those 2 states)
4 families from SC were actually from the CITY LIMITS of MB) (one from Grand Dunes even) and 2 other groups were from Surfside (Nope, none were "HER") ;D
The family from the G. Dunes was VERY nice and VERY apologetic even. They begged for us bikers to return. They said they (and their relatives) are lifetime locals. They were 100% anti John Rhodes.
They also said the reason for all this anti biker stance is a cover up to a long term goal, of purposely ruining businesses for cheap land deals. They said it is a carefully plotted, VERY highly financed and backed plan to purposely cause the destruction of land values in order to buy land cheap to bring in casinos.
(3rd local that has told me something like that but the first from the G. Dunes area)
Now onto a few more visitor locations to add to the list:
Drum roll please:
AUSTRALIA
GERMANY,
LONDON
and
CHINA
I thought I would die laughing when those from foreign countries drove thru and brought up MB to me. (I couldn't help but remember my corny little poem from months ago about MB being famous in far away places)
So there ya go folks...It is official.
Myrtle Beach IS known world wide in a very unflattering way. Not one person spoke up in defense of MB. Not even those that live there.
