Kiss Country Chili Cook-off

Forget about heroin chic. Skinny, pale women and name-brand fashions were nowhere to be found at this annual country-music festival, where sunburns, beer guts, wife-beaters, Daisy Dukes and T-shirts bearing politically incorrect sayings such as, "If you can read this, the bitch fell off" are de rigueur. While the Hermès scarf may be a top-of-the-line garment in the haute-couture world, Confederate-flag handkerchiefs are the unfortunate accessory of choice at this hootenanny. You've been warned.
