I have no idea who Marlin Perkins is. yes, we live near a Cabella's -we're exit 37, they are exit 17. We often pass but rarely stop by. Too expensive.

I could go broke in one of those places. We have Bass Pro, very similar stores, I think.

SOrry the Marlin Perkins ref was too outdated. He was our David Attenborough until he died in the mid 80s.
He was a naturalist and host of "Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom".

If you think Cabela's is expensive you should see Orvis. They've got several $25K and up engraved shotguns...
$250 hip flasks, etc. It's for people who are unable to spend enough money at regular stores.

and I was being ironic and a bit facetious.

yes, you can spend a lot on a little quite easily. Do all Cabela's have the indoor mountain and river?

We live 3o minutes from a Cabella's.

Ridiculous.

You want ALL the rednecks in one place on Sunday afternoon? That's where they are.

It was a Sunday staple in most households.

His sidekick was Jim Fowler. Jokes abounded (Carson comes to mind) of Marlin saying things like "I'm going to wait here with my martini, while Jim goes out to catch the wily alligator."
