We hung Daddy’s ribbon above the fireplace, right next to his Billy Bass and his autographed photo of Slim Pickens. His beloved treasures were a great comfort to us when he when to that great strawberry patch in the sky. We will never forget that our daddy was once the Best Dressed Strawberry at the Fulton County Senior Ladies’ Golf Tournament and Pancake Breakfast.
The really scary thing is, I can see this as a pretty normal picture for a town near me. I’ve played photographer at their annual Rotary golf tournament, which falls on a different weekend from their Chamber of Commerce Strawberry Festival. However, if the two were combined, this would be the result – easy.
After the Fruit Of The Loom guys broke up, Steve formed his own band, The Vanilla Sundae Gang. He was also known to collaborate on a solo project with Fig Newton.
Myrna told her son that unless he got a paid acting gig soon he was to come home to work in the family business or he would be cut off financially. Desperate to avoid that fate, he took the first role offered and rushed off to show mom before he went to his Froot of the Lume commerical shoot.
If you zoom in on it, Mr. Berry has a bandaid across his nose. I think he must’ve gotten a little “fresh” with one of the ladies and she smacked him with a 9 iron.
I think the best part of this is that this is not just any man in a strawberry costume on a golf course posing with four ladies, but this is Benjamin Franklin in a strawberry costume on a golf course posing with four ladies.
Geez the more I look at it, the funnier it gets… I noticed the striped leggings, the green hair, and what is that white thing hanging off the berry’s torso?
that thing on his torso is the first thing I spotted. I have my own ideas of what it is…do strawberry men have male anatomy? Did this guy know someone stuck this on his costume? How embarrassing.
A dazed and confused Charlie (Strawberry Shortcake’s lesser known brother) just happened to stroll across these ladies while scavenging the pasture for more shrooms and couldn’t help but consent to their kind offering of a picture in exchange for some brownies in a basket, it was indeed Charlie’s lucky day.
That’s no way to talk about Glen Campbell. Although it is sad that the rhinestone cowboy has resorted to this….workin’ the ladies dressed as a strawberry.
omg…thanks for the laugh Whoa and Hey now. I was thinking about going to bed now but I fear I will dream of Glen Strawberry Campbell chasing me around a golf course with that basket!
From the look on his face it appears the lady to his left is the type of grocery shopper that likes to “feel” the produce rather than smell it for ripeness

Is it just me or does that look like Willard Scott?
Though too much headroom, I think the picture is cute and not a devastating embarrassment for Mr. Berry. The picture is a sure conversation starter.
And the conversation pretty quickly gets to: “What the hell were you doing?”

lol!!
Where in the hell is the beer wench?
Wildest bachelorette party EVER!!
I hope he is getting all access to the country club bar on their tab! Poor guy…
This is why it’s important for the organizers of the Miss Strawberry Pageant to name a runner-up.
Why does the Strawberry Man have a giant tampon hanging off of him?
As I replied earlier, it’s not a tampon, it’s a home pregnancy test.
Okay, why does he have a home pregnancy test hanging off of him?

This looks like the welcoming committee to Knott’s Berry Farm. Huckleberry Pie must have been over at the volleyball tournament.

I think you guys meant *wouldn’t*….just sayin’.
Hexipooh, I totally agree. The first thing I thought was that this dude lost some major bet!
So this is what happens when the Golden Girls let their hair down and live it up a bit! I’ll betya Blanche knows how to work a juicer.
(Talk about a scary mental image, huh? Pass the sand paper.)
I am getting strangely turned on right now …
I was thinking it was strawberry shortcake’s dad. scary.
Two questions:
1. Is that Fred Willard?
2. Is he wearing a 5th-place prize ribbon?
The reason Mr. Strawberry is grinning is because he won first place. Yes folks that is a RIBBON pinned to his proud chest.
Why would you say this is a ladies’ tournament?
I was thinking the same thing!
Anyone have some sandpaper so I can rub this image from my brain?
Please let that guy be Fred Willard.
Now all we need is for the Kool-Aid man to bust through that wall of trees behind them! Strawberry Kool-Aid Party! Oh, Yeah!!!!!!

Strawberry Shortcake? Naw, Strawberry BEEFCAKE!
Note the ribbon… I think he was a winner in the Golf Ladie’s “Dress Your Man Up in the Most Ridiculous Costume” Contest, the fruitier the better!
With a name like Smucker’s, it has to be awkward.
That white/pink thing is an 6th place ribbon. Guess his berries just weren’t fresh enough for those ladies.
I would really like to hear the real story behind this crazy photo. . .
“Ok ladies.. one more picture and then I’ve got to get back to the underwear label.”
If you zoom in on it, Mr. Berry has a bandaid across his nose. I think he must’ve gotten a little “fresh” with one of the ladies and she smacked him with a 9 iron.
he looks a little *fruity* to me…
strawberry man looks like Jim Carrey with a green wig…. new movie maybe?
It looks as if one of the ladies has already “tagged” their berry.
Also, does he have green dreads for hair?????
I’ll never eat another strawberry for as long as I live!
I think the best part of this is that this is not just any man in a strawberry costume on a golf course posing with four ladies, but this is Benjamin Franklin in a strawberry costume on a golf course posing with four ladies.
What is that pinned to the Strawberry Fairy’s chest? Hmmmm……
Looks like an at home pregnancy test.
The lady on the left is disappointed because she had her heart set on a raspberry.
Geez the more I look at it, the funnier it gets… I noticed the striped leggings, the green hair, and what is that white thing hanging off the berry’s torso?
I think it’s a whistle! I guess he thought the outfit was not enough to draw every eye in the place.
Pinky is right – it’s a ribbon. This was a contest. I feel better already.
Hey that kind of girl, not even Texas has tampons that size!
that thing on his torso is the first thing I spotted. I have my own ideas of what it is…do strawberry men have male anatomy? Did this guy know someone stuck this on his costume? How embarrassing.
Pretty sure it’s a tampon. At least. I’m hoping it’s a tampon.
What a fruit.
I’m Mister Strawberry! Yum yum yum yum YUM!
(If anyone reading this actually knows where that’s from: Congratulations on being as sad as me!)
I have to know where that’s from! Give it up, DH!
This isn’t remotely awkward. It is cute!
A dazed and confused Charlie (Strawberry Shortcake’s lesser known brother) just happened to stroll across these ladies while scavenging the pasture for more shrooms and couldn’t help but consent to their kind offering of a picture in exchange for some brownies in a basket, it was indeed Charlie’s lucky day.
HA!
Looks like somebody lost a bet.
love this site
greetings from Poland 
Strawberry Fairy? Very!
I’m thinkin’ that, based on that outfit, the Strawberry Man is seedless, if you know what I mean. And I think you do.
Bawww hawww hawww!
That’s no way to talk about Glen Campbell. Although it is sad that the rhinestone cowboy has resorted to this….workin’ the ladies dressed as a strawberry.
WINNER!
omg…thanks for the laugh Whoa and Hey now. I was thinking about going to bed now but I fear I will dream of Glen Strawberry Campbell chasing me around a golf course with that basket!
glen ‘strawberry’ campbell.

From the look on his face it appears the lady to his left is the type of grocery shopper that likes to “feel” the produce rather than smell it for ripeness
LOL They do both have the same forced grin.
bravo, don!
I guess strawberry shortcake grew up,questioned her gender and decided to live as a man.I had always wondered what happened to her.Now we all know!
Thanks so much for this comment! I’m at work and trying not to laugh out loud! (So tears are pouring out instead.) Fabulous!
What IS that device hanging from his costume? And what bet did HE lose?
golf ladies….nothing hotter
