Bubba and Billy Bob, who are both from Arkansas, traveled down to Asheville,
North Carolina for a vacation. While walking along a busy downtown street,
they see a sign in a store window which reads,
Suits $5.00 each, Shirts $2.00 each and Trousers $2.50 a pair.
Bubba says to Billy Bob, lookee here! We could buy a whole gob of these
clothes, take 'em back to Arkansas sell 'em to all our friends, and make a
fortune fer us. Bubba continues, Now when we go in there, don't you say a
word, okay? Just let me do the talkin' 'cause if they hear your accent, they
might think we're ignorant, and they won't wanna sell them clothes to us.
Now, I'll talk in a slow Carolina drawl so's they won't know. They go in and
Bubba says with his best fake Carolina drawl, I'll take 50 of them there
suits at $5.00 each, 100 of them there shirts at $2.00 each, and 50 pairs of
them there trousers at $2.50 each. I'll just back up my pickup and......
The owner of the shop interrupts, Ya'll from Arkansas, ain't you?
Well....yeah, says a surprised Bubba. How come'd you know that? The owner
replies,Cause this here's a dry-cleaners.
