Don’t look for anything of substance on my site today. I’m not in a substance mood.
My teenage daughter, Danielle asked me this question: (It’s an insight into her personality.) Why do fat people work at Subway and skinny people work at McDonald’s? (Now of course she’s speaking of Yankton)Utah girl has stinkiest shoes
MONTPELIER, Vt. (UPI) — A 13-year-old Utah girl took home the top prize at a nationwide stinky sneakers competition in Montpelier, Vt.
Katharine Tuck took home a golden tennis shoe, $2,500 and a year’s worth of Odor Eaters from the National Odor Eaters Stinky Rotten Sneaker Competition, Odor Eaters said in a release on its Web site.
Tuck also won a trip to New York and tickets to see “The Lion King” on Broadway.
“I’m supportive and I’m so proud, even though she stinks,” Tuck’s mother, Paula told The Salt Lake Tribune. She said her daughter is “normally really clean” but was able to overcome her neat impulses to keep her feet wallowing in filth.
Tuck qualified for the competition by taking home the first prize for foul shoe odors at the 2006 Utah State Fair. Her brother took second place in the competition, the newspaper said.

I say my shoes could stomp hers any day.
Sometimes we should be allowed to have “Non-Substance Days.”
ick… lol Ang
Are they letting her shoes come to NY too?
Why do people have the weirdest contests? =/
In answer to your daughter’s question… probably because of manager’s prejudices..
LOL – thats what I needed today,.,,,,,, no substance……to rest my brain – lol!
lol.shoes in the bag!
A bit of trivia: Who likes cheese? Did you know that the very “same” bacteria which won the first prize for “stinky feet” is also what makes cheese so darn tasty! Yep! That’s a fact.
What is it about teens and stinking feet? LOL You’re allowed to take a break from “substance” once and awhile. I have faith you’ll get back to meat soon. = ) Have a great day. Take care & God bless!
Well here’s a question for your daughter to ponder: why do fat people drive little, tiny cars (like Festiva’s) while skinny people drive huge suv’s?
I feel sooo sorry for the judges of that competition!
Being an Arizonian who hates wearing socks in shoes, I could’ve TOTALLY taken that prize! I demand a rematch! =)
Have a lovely day!
Hugs!
Don’t you think substance can be highly over-rated at times?
Pheweee!!! Ah, I remember teenagers and their shoes! The empty nest smells better.
Hope you had a great weekend! I did! Just VERY BUSY!!!
I haven’t been to a Subway in a long time. They are the most franchised restaurant, if I remember correctly.
stinky shoes….ick!
about the question your daughter asked. the McDonalds I know all seem to have Black people work at them (no offense) while Subways is more varied. I dunno… just odd coincidence.
That girls mother didn’t know about Febreze. Judi
