There's one by the Sears at San Antonio and El Camino Real. It's typical,
exactly like the one in Boise. It's full of obese women with obese
children and obese dads wearing NASCAR T-shirts, one paycheck away from
eviction, buying the same cheap ****. Competitive bass fishing fits their
demographic perfectly.

I take it that you interviewed each family to find out that they were "one
paycheck from eviction!?"

Anyone know how Wal-Mart became such a huge supporter of Bass-Fishing?
Seems like they're pumping in millions of dollars into the sport, and
nothing on fly-fishing.

It's simple really. Wal-Mart sells fishing merchandise that appeals to the
largest fishing demographic.

I accept that there may be a legitimate arguement for not shopping
there based on the fact that much of the stuff is made in slave labor
camps in RedChina.

Other than that, I have never understood the elitism that causes some
people to look down their noses at the store and the people who shop
there.

I can only attribute it to terminal yuppiness.

Amen Brother!

Another thing. Have you ever looked at the fly fishing section of a Bass
Pro Shop, compared to the rest of their fishing gear. Think in terms of sq.
footage.

Funny? I missed the quotations in your post and read it as if you were

It is my own experience. It just happens to match H. Lee Scott, Jr.'s quote.
