The Singing Trophy Buck

Has anyone seen this thing? The singing trophy buck is what it is refered to. It is a very large plastic deer head, with huge amounts of ear hair, that moves and sings shit like "Sweet Home Alabama" and "Rawhide." It also breaks up it's songs with little jokes. From what I understand, you can even plug a mic into it and sing along.

It's sort of like Billy the Big Mouth Bass... only it's a mounted deer head. Life size, too.

For the record, I hate this fucking thing.

But I have a reason. My reason is that there is one of these things mounted on the wall at the firing range, and it happens to be less than a foot from where I have been posted for the past three days. So for three days, I have heard The Singing Trophy Buck repeatedly sing Sweet Home Alabama. This is a solid 30 hours of Sweet Home Alabama as done by a deer head.

But I have it easy. I can't hear the "doorbell." The "doorbell" is a four foot tall Santa that sings and dances each time someone walks by, which means when someone walks into the store it starts singing. Shortly after passing Santa, they have to pass Buck, which is also set off by motion. So Buck starts while Santa is still mid-song. This is what the sales people and the front end cashiers hear all day long. Jingle Bells and Rawhide.

What gets me is that Buck is located less than two feet from the shotguns. How he has survived, I will never know.

But what really gets me is that people will dish out $100 at KMart for this thing, or $80 for it at the gun store. And we have the cheapest I've seen yet.

my job sucked having to work with assholes. Now I know things are not that bad. I've seen those heads singing at the store and it just pisses me off for the few minutes I am in there. I can't imagine hearing trophy buck sing all day long.

Fuck I hate my job and my whole useless life.

You work at a gun store. How hard would it be for this thing to meet with a tragic "accident"? You have more self control than I do, my friend. I would have ripped it off the wall and stomped it into a fake fur oblivion with a maniacal smile on my face within the first few chords of "Sweet Home Alabama"

I feel for you having to put up with that - but at least there could be a small possibility of it being taken down if you objected politely. And at least it is only likely to be up over christmas and then when it is put into 'safe storage' for next year it could magically disappear never to be seen again.

I would like one of those with my bosses head on it - but mine would sing something else. ANd then I would take great pleasure in TWATTING it!
