Actually, I heard the guy on T.V say "bomb-beer-day". I don't know, it's confusing!

bomb beer day.........hhhhhmmmmmmmm

I think maybe he was thinking about something else.....but I do like the beer day part. Maybe bomb beer day could be the new name for ds days.

OK, Here's the sinareo, (Oklahoma)

An O'l boy walks up to me and says: "HEY!, what kinda four-wheeler is that?" and I reply,"Its a Bomb-bard-dee-ay DS650". Then I can literally see the GLAZE come over his eyes,and then he asks "Is that like a Honda?" I say NO it is a company in Canada.

Then his Buddy walks up and asks"HEY!, what kinda four-wheeler is that?" and I reply " Its a BOMB-BA-DEER, (to see if i can get a better reaction). And he says "OH!, is that like a Honda?" Then I simply say YES, its like a Honda.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]


Biggerisbetter.

P.S. I have figured out that if a guy asks "what kinda four-wheeler is that"? I don't spend the time explaining, But if they ask " what kind of QUAD is that?" Then I will proudly tell them.

I've always wondered this question too. I actually thought of putting up a post about it, but I see you've beat me to it
