1500 Funk

[Fenway]

What is the smell at the 1500. I'm not talking about the crop dusting or the BO. There is a smell that get's into your clothes. Some of the gear we didn't sell smells of it.

Thoughts?

Does it smell like ?

 

[Leo]

I always kind of though most of it is 50 and 100 year old leather and canvas war surplus stuff that has been stored in bad conditions, and sprayed for insects. Not to mention lots of odd items from lots of peoples basements.

It's the smell of despair. And nachos. Despair and nachos.

Cosmoline?

 

[Faine]

Could it have been some of that MRE you had all over hand?

 

[Fenway]

It's like a stale popcorn/cotton candy smell with a touch of leather

Wet straw? I notice the smell more in the warmer, damper months.

Are any of the show buildings ever used for livestock during the state fair?

I kept smelling the kind of mold you get when someone forgot there was a load of laundry in the washer.

Last 1500 I went to, reeked of stale popcorn, hot dog water and moldy canvas.

Dollars to dog nuts it is from the candied nuts across from us. Lisa always says it smellstains (yes, I made a word up) her hair every show. My daughter will then tell us we smell like donuts.

Welcome to your new location, lol....

It's definitely the roasted nuts. My wife and I were talking about that when I came home. She loves those roasted cashews.

There definitely is such a thing as "smellstains." That's why we don't go to Cracker Barrel in the late Fall to early Spring. They always have a fire in the fireplace and the rooftop air handlers seem to always suck in the smoke and blow it back into the building. We have to go home and shower and throw the clothes into the washer before they can stink up the house.

The nuts for sure.

I almost bought some of those nuts, but $10 for a cone of them? That's ridiculous. I'm not paying that much for nuts.

It is... And she's right. I can smell that shat for hours after the show

Anyone remember the old days when you came out smelling like a used ashtray?
