The humorous part of this wonderful thread is that the salt life and other stickers are probably more widely seen in non-coastal areas of the state. The typical “Charleston Steve”, as we call them, grew up in a city away from the coast. They went to USC or Clemson and realized that a $65,000 truck was the way to go, so daddy bought it for them along with $1,500 in tires/lift/tint/and other silly modifications that are never used. Then a friend took them to a farm one time to shoot guns and spin the tires in wet grass, so they got dad to buy them some $500 browning and ducks unlimited clothes that came with stickers that of course went on the big truck. Once they found the cute wealthy girlfriend at college, her uncle or some other distant family member or friend takes them offshore fishing one time. Upon return to college in the big truck, which is now covered with marlin and other assorted offshore fishing stickers, they tell dad to get them a yeti for all of their outdoor excursions. The yeti sticker gets put up next to the South Carolina State Flag sticker and the cooler goes in the back of the truck next to the unused, diamond-plated dog crate.

I’m not angry or frustrated, but simply find this social concept very amusing. The first sticker I created was for Charleston Steve Outfitters (based on my buddy’s term “Charleston Steve” - a friend started a page along time ago that has not been updated in quite a while, but here is a link to the sticker pic - https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=160061974032025&set=a.144679738903582.19701.100000846696087&type=1&theater . You may see some still floating around out there. Recently I created a new one that you may see around town. It is about 3 feet wide and a foot tall in a font similar to salt life, but says “Sticker Life”. I think its great someone started a thread : “whats with all the stickers”

BathSaltLife. It’s not a hobby, it’s a lifestyle.

Saw a bumper sticker once, back in the 70’s that said (Ruck Fussia):wink:

Just assume that stickers are just a shout out or wave to like minded people, if that’s not you just look at something else and mind your own biz.

Probably one of the better responses to this thread…

Crazy how people want to control others instead of trying to understand them or just plain live and let live. Not that all can be understood…

We went from stickers to High end rods and reels. I have invested in quality rods and reels but have no stickers on anything that says so. I bought a Yeti cooler off a Mt P kid needed money. Probably stole it out of someones boat. Yeti only works if you keep it closed and is heavy as lead. Use an old marine grade Igloo super cold had for years. Hinges made out of leather kept closed with a piece of rubber rope and cleat mounted on outside works great and no one will steal it out of my 13 year old truck.

Amen to that. It doesn’t matter to me if you want stickers, raccoon tails, beads, tattoos, body piercings, red reflectors, those spinning wheel hub thingys, bass speakers that vibrate the street and rattle the metal in your car, or a plastic Jesus on your dashboard. Have at it. I won’t lose a moments sleep.

There was a comedian a couple years back on TV, I don’t remember who it was, who said if you looked in a man’s closet you would know where he graduated college, all of his favorite sports, everywhere he went on vacation in the last 10 years, his favorite local bars, what his favorite fishing tackle, firearms, tractors and vehicles are, and his wannabe stuff :smiley: Pretty accurate I’d say. Also say if you don’t like it Call 1-800- Eat S@%t:smiley:

I make fun of people with stickers all over the place too… but I make more fun of people who correct other people’s spelin and gramer on a fishing website, as if they’ve done something special. :clown_face:

How about this one…

I had to laugh the other day. I went into Haddrells Mt. P. Was there for about 20 min getting my stuff. In that 20 min I overheard the following: “Do you have a Salt Life sticker?” and “Where are the Yeti hats?” I was chuckling to myself thinking of this thread :slight_smile:

Haddrells loves that ****! All the way to the bank :slight_smile:

I don’t put Yeti stickers on my stuff, I put stickers on my Yeti. Is that OK?

You can always make money but you cant make time.

I could care less what kind of stickers someone puts on their car, boat, cooler, etc. What logo they have on their hat, shirt, shorts…That is of course, unless I don’t like said stickers/logo. Then it bothers me.

For the record, I have my college stickers on my car.

I have one that says “My Other Cooler’s a Yeti”

You know, the bigger the Yeti sticker, the bigger the cooler. I have a couple Yeti stickers in my glovebox, $50 for the small ones and $350 for the big yeti sticker.

All fishermen are liars except for you and me, and to tell you the truth brother, I’m not sure about you!

Although they do perform together at times, it’s Bill Engvall that routinely does the “Heres’s your sign” skits, not Jeff Foxworthy.

RIP my “Puppy Dog” 10/15/2004 - 1/14/2013. Still can’t get him out of my mind. What a special friend he was.

I also have a yeti sticker on my garbage can.

I fall into the I don’t care what people put on the vehicles as long as appropriate for the general public (kids) to look at. I’ve put on a free sticker or two of something I like/support and currently have nothing and prefer the “clean” look right now. The recent sticker fad that I find very odd is the stick figure families. However, even that has produced humor on the road. I saw a pickup truck on 26 that had the typical stick figure family with dog except mom had been removed and the spot left empty. Sad but kind of funny that he did that (assuming it was a divorce). This one really takes the cake. Nice job, West Virginia…
