It looks like something good is finally coming out of McAlester!
Yesterday afternoon, an Ogle Mole let us know that some guy named Jimmy Plummer – a fringer mayoral candidate from Ryan Walters’s old stomping grounds of McAlester, Oklahoma who looks like he talks like Droopy the Dog – announced on Facebook that he was organizing a wet t-shirt contest campaign fundraiser and was on the prowl for participants.
Check this out:
As a former judge of The Miss Night Trips Pageant & Pole Olympics, I want to be clear that I don’t have a problem with a political candidate hosting a wet t-shirt contest to drum up support.
First of all, perverts and strippers vote, too, so there's nothing wrong with going after their vote.
Second, it’s honestly refreshing to see a political candidate be upfront and forward with their perversions, and not keep them hidden and reserved for late-night rendezvous in Southside hotel rooms with teenage prostitutes.
Although I don’t mind the event, the moral authority of McAlester thinks it’s a bad idea. They flooded Plummer’s Facebook page with angry comments, claiming that filthy stuff like that doesn’t belong in their town.
As a result, Plummer left another Facebook comment thanking these puritanical complainers for the publicity and announcing that – unlike the old wet t-shirt competitions at Club Infinity on N. Classen in the late 1990s – no tops or bottoms would be coming off...
I hate to break it Jimmy, but he’s really burying the lede here!
If the whole point of this is to generate publicity, he really needs to promote this as an all-gender, LGBTQ-friendly wet t-shirt contest where the tops and bottoms will be flying off like they’re at the District Hotel on a Saturday night!
While you’re at it, say you’ll host a drag show and reading of Gender Queer at the Harbor Mountain Coffee House.
That will really get everyone hot and bothered!
In fact, I bet Ryan Walters would quickly rush home and organize his own wet handmaid's contest – a conservative competition where the participants have lukewarm water poured over their heads while donning long red dresses and white bonnets – as a response.
Anyway, I guess we’ll continue to follow this story and provide updates to see if A) Jimmy goes through with the competition and B) if he follows any of our ideas for publicity.
Stay with The Lost Ogle. We’ll keep you advised.
