A What’s That Winner
Fun, What's That? April 15th, 2010Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner!
Babs of Beetle Blog was the first to guess correctly that the What’s That object from yesterday was a boot spur.
I found the item in the woodworking shop of a friend of mine. He had all kinds of cool, antique, things in his shop hanging from the rafters (which explains all the dust on it that many of you pointed out). What keen eyes you have!
Way to go, Babs. You asked for the black cat bandaids instead of what was up for grabs. I’m nothing if not flexible. I’ll see that you get the kitty bandaids.
Thanks for playing and submitting such good and funny guesses, everyone!
And Cardiogirl? Six guesses? Maybe I’ll get you those cupcake bandaids simply because I’m afraid you’ll die without them.
Until next time!
Stumble it!

I never would have guessed boot spur. Good one, Kathy!

That’s a really cool item. I especially like that horse on the side. I’m terrible at these games.

Woohoo! [dance of pleasure] I’m thrilled to have guessed one right for a change. I don’t mind getting whatever you had on offer, honest. Whatever it is, it will be exciting to receive!

It looks much prettier from afar, I think. I had the idea that spurs were more poky-like.

No wonder why I didn’t guess well…I don’t think I’ve ever seen a boot spur in my life. I’ve seen plenty of dust, though…

Ouch. I have never been on a horse, but have seen these in the movies. Seems like it would hurt the horse? Do they really not move without them? Amazing the Babs could guess from that little photo. Way to go!

(Clears throat) So that’s how that works? One guess per customer? My, uh, competitive spirit was thrown into high gear when I saw that the band aids came in a tin box.
When I read the answer I did yell to my kid, “Katie, come here! The answer to that picture was a spur!” Then we spent some time wondering how that spur would attach to the boot in a solid way — since there seems to be a chain in front — without flopping around on the boot.
This was such an educational post, thanks!

Great job Babs! Kathy, next time will you make it something really simple, for the simple minded? and send it to me by email 24 hours ahead of the pack? I still probably won’t guess it but I might have a shot!

Woo hoo and way to go Babs! I recall her saying before she (like me) has a really hard time with these. So this just shows her mad skillz, perseverance and keen eyesight! 🙂
Three cheers!

Good job Babs. I should have gotten that one but I haven’t ever seen a spur designed like that before. Congrats Babs. HOpe you get something really good. And good job Kathy for such a great picture. Have a wonderful week end.

Well it comes from watching all the old cowboy films when I was young. I have never seen one in real life. Don’t think they have them in the UK!

That boot spur is awesome, but so difficult to guess what it was, lol
April 17th, 2010 at 7:03 am
I would have never guessed that!
