The Dirty Little Secret Of Carnal Carnies (Carnies get a lot of action from local chicks.)

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (Wireless Flash) -- If you're looking for love in all the wrong places, you might want to work in a carnival.That's the sordid truth from Brett Witter, author of a new book, "Carnival Undercover" (Plume). He claims an amazing percentage of women have the hots for carnival workers and make their lives a circus.

The carnies affectionately call these wanton women "lot lizards" who Witter says are primarily interested in having anonymous sex with a stranger -- especially one who'll be leaving town soon. But not all carnies get the chance to get carnal with the townfolks.

Witter says there's a strict carny caste system that favors the guys who run the ball-tossing games and shooting galleries operators more than the shmoes who run the food booths or take tickets for the Ferris wheel.

Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves



I was born on the wagon of a traveling show
My momma use to dance for the money they'd throw
Papa would do whatever he could
Preach a little gospel, sell a couple bottles of Doctor Good

Gypsies, tramps & thieves
We'd hear it from the people of the town
They'd call us
Gypsies, tramps & thieves
But every night all the men would come around
And lay their money down

Picked up a boy just south of Mobile
Gave him a ride, filled him with a hot meal
I was sixteen, he was twenty-one
Rode with us to Memphis
And papa woulda shot him if he knew what he'd done

Gypsies, tramps & thieves
We'd hear it from the people of the town
They'd call us
Gypsies, tramps & thieves
But every night all the men would come around
And lay their money down

I never had schoolin' but he taught me well
With his smooth southern style
Three months later I'm a gal in trouble
And I haven't seen him for a while, uh huh
I haven't seen him for a while, uh huh

She was born in the wagon of a travellin' show
Her mama had to dance for the money they'd throw
Grandpa'd do whatever he could
Preach a little gospel, sell a couple bottles of Doctor Good

Gypsies, tramps & thieves
We'd hear it from the people of the town
They'd call us
Gypsies, tramps & thieves
But every night all the men would come around
And lay their money down

Gypsies, tramps & thieves
We'd hear it from the people of the town
They'd call us
Gypsies, tramps & thieves
But every night all the men would come around
And lay their money down

Oh Please! I know it's not fair to speak in generalities, but even at my most despirite times, I think I would be out of the mood by the time I scrubbed those carnies down with a hot high powered washer, loaded with Pinesol.

The writer of this story definitely lives in Fantasy Land or perhaps, Never-Never Land.

It's nice to see that these girls still have standards - the shmoes who run the food booths or take tickets for the Ferris wheel really are the bottom of the bucket. :-)

"I'll bet they get best-looking women in town."

I seriously doubt it. Have you ever seen any carnies? I'll bet they mostly get trailer-trash whores, and prostitutes.

There's nothing the chicks dig more than the combination of missing teeth, giant tattoos and a hook for a hand.
