You should see some of the winners at the sale barn I go to. Everything you have described along with food & drink remnants/stains, greasy hair and muddy tobacco juice drooling from the side of the mouth. :yuck:
Here and there you'll see more respectable appearances.
I thought that my local barn was the only one. Not a full set of teeth among the whole crew together. They're not breaking any steriotypes that some of the animal rights folks have of those who deal with livestock as an ignorant bunch of slovenly yahoos.
The stands are pretty small, and the only place that I can think of which still allows smoking indoors. I don't go often, but one of these days I'm going to make a stink to whatever state agency governs that kind of thing. I won't even bring my young son because the smoke is so bad, and it's one of the few places locally where he can experience a lot of other livestock on a regular basis.
The only unusual lingo that they use is calling every goat or sheep wether a steer. I guess multiple syllables are too difficult. I take that back. They've never heard of a buck or a doe. Goats there are still billies and nannies.
