F. one dollar. Plainsmen visited the wild and wooly West...that is, the mock wooly West of Cowtown. After taking a stroll through booth- infested halls, grits could sit back and relax at the FTA Saloon or gag as they watched Senior Class members eating live goldfish. Of course, for the competitive cowboy, there were jalapeno peppers to eat and hard-boiled eggs to cram down. A sight for sore eyes was the Cantores Canteen where choir members entertained fellow students with the latest country and western tunes. When the hungries hit, candy apples, crepes, nachos, popcorn and candy bars were available to satisfy a cowboy's appetite. Women got cheap thrills for only 250 as they watched the second annual Macho Man contest held in the gym. Mike Gregg flexed his bulging biceps to win the contest. Class winners were Bret Burgess, Travis Walden and Charles Deatherage. For the tough kicker, the FFA bucking horse challenged all rear- ends. For lovers only, a marriage booth hitched couples, while kiss-o- grams were sent by bashful admirers. Memories of the entire evening were captured by the Pub- sponsored picture portraits and FBLA Cowtown t-shirts. The final roundup was held in the cafeteria where everyone danced to the foot stomping, finger snappin' music and just had a rip-roarin' good time. Country and western singers David Downum, Mike McCarty, Barry Nelson, Rodger Watson and Jerry Slater croon about their Redneck Mother. Bon apetft to David Howard, Ben Middle and David Thompson as they gulp down live goldfish to raise money for the Senior Class. Mr. Macho, Mike Gregg, shows off his masculinity in the Macho Man contest. Pages by Carolyn Lugo, Charley Ainsworth Hangin' around 17
