Behind The Awkwardness: Banana Split
December 12th, 2011
“My grandmother owns a store in the town I grew up in and every year she enters a float, representing the store, into the summer parade. Of course, this meant that I had to be on every one, usually in some ridiculous costume. I think that this was by far the most embarrassing year though. I’m the waving cherry on the far right and my cousin, on the far left, took the smarter approach and didn’t show his face for the entire parade.”

This isn’t awkward, its actually pretty cool. This is Americana. If you got out of the float and walked around with a cherry on your head in a pair of jorts. That would be awkward.
“God-forsaken town”? Ever been there? It’s a cute little town.
And the next year she entered a root beer float float.
i’m on a float
Darn Sundae drivers!
HHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! Love it!
That isn’t awkward, that’s cute! Bless that grandmother’s heart!
Is this in Mason, TX?
LOL…yup…that is Mason Texas. I grew up there! Hardly a godforsaken little town.
Great town near Austin and San Antonio…
I looked up this intersection, it is in downtown Mason TX, a god-forsaken town in central Texas. Something very sad about this.
Yes this was posted before. At least now it is correct. It said Cherry Pie before.
Am I seeing things? Wasn’t this pic posted before?
I did a double take myself. Dessert so nice they served it twice.
Cherry Pie??? That’s a Banana Split!
I think this is great! Maybe awkward for you, but I bet you made a lot of people smile that day.
Of course he made them smile…THEY WERE LAUGHING AT HIM.
