What's the craziest thing youv'e seen at a pow-wow?
 

Just a question. What's the craziest thing you've seen at a pow-wow? Embarrassing moments???

"miss indian outta this world!"
i'm talkin' she was decked out in a mini cave woman lookin' hoochie style bootie tight TURQUOISE buckskin dress w/pony beads galore & some knee high apache joe lace up boots FANCY DANCING (or tryin' to) twirlin' around in the arena....
ohhhh man... it was HILARIOUS!

Visitors who imitate someone dancing of the opposite sex. Example, women who try to follow an older tradish male dancer. Geez. Poor guy.

Gawd, with that description, I can almost see it.. LOLOLOLOL :rofl2: :rofl: :10:

There are so many I've seen that I don't know where to start.

i seen this one Southern Strait dancer (probably a wannabe) who wasn't ready for his contest. The MC announced his contest was to take place following the Women's southern cloth category. While the drum started to sing the women's contest song, the guy was too busy trying to put on his gear and hurring up, that he walks out and starts dancing. He didn't realize that he was dancing with the women. In mid song, he FINALLY realizes it, and he gets outta there really quick. A lot of people were pointing and laughing at him, but he danced in his rightful category afterwards. NO shame whatsoever!!!

That description is making me laugh too.

:4:

ahahahahahahahahahah :Chatter :Chatter

Sheesh, I couldn't stop laughing when I read this one. I've seen some peeps like these at pow-wows, too. CRAZY!!

I saw an old-style womens fancy shawl special a few years back, and a lady was getting down with some fancy footwork...i mean she was serious, had a look of concentration on her face...and I see something lacy down by her mid-calf. She was busy jammin out, and this white lacy thing was getting lower and lower, and I realized it was her underwear!!! When she realized what was happening, she spun around and bent down to pull them up (pretending she was gonna tie her moccasin) and the drum stopped when she bent down. She wrapped herself in her shawl and walked off...she was just laughing her a$$ off because she knew that everyone saw her. at least she had a good sense of humor about it...I would have been mortified!!! was a good laugh tho.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.. at least she could laugh at herself and find humor in it, instead of being all indignant. I think I woulda just buried myself somewhere and just stay hidden.

Wow - now you know you dance hard when you dance your lacy unmentionables off! She'll likely duct tape em on for further contests!

On my very first outing as an Arena Director at a major university powwow . . .

A little girl got too hot and sick in the middle of the arena. As a result, she "projectile vomited" yellow and green chunks across the dance arena.

Guess who got to walk out in the middle of the arena with a bucket and mop and clean it up in front of everyone?

c'mon guess?

Then

About 30 minutes later . . .

there was a fist fight (3 on 1) inside the arena.

Guess who got to break it up and pull bodies off the guy on the bottom?

c'mon guess??

I don't know WHO?
:4:

yeah who?:rolleyes: :confused:

Never seen anything crazy yet, but had an embarrassing moment:p My brother seen this one guy, and was like.."hey I'm gonna hook you two up"..I was like..NO WAY!..and he ran over to that guy anyways, and here I was trynna duck and hide behind this one car, and the guy comes over all "Who's De****?"

I don't know what they thought they were doing, but they looked ridiculous!:rolleyes: everyone was looking at eachother and going WTF???

i dunno what it is mann... but when we go to some of the powwows around here (sometime's they're a little "DIFFERENT") and the MC calls for a round dance... all these older white ladies (no discrimination) get out here and try to get all fancy doing the washing machine dance or something resembling the merengue and they're out there just shakin' it up - in a tight @$$ halter top or leather bikini top jinglin' all around... mann... sometims I'M embarassed to see 'em out there! but they're lubbin' it... goin' along w/their fake pink pony beaded barrett in their hair
