Day 50 – The Nashville Gun Shovel Spoon

This monstrosity is the newest addition to my collection and an immense source of pride.


It was likely conceived as part of a contest at the souvenir factory to see who could improve on the shovel spoon. A guy named Mel won the contest when he suggested: said “Just take the shield from the top uh the spoon, stick it in the bowl, an’ then go on and turn that there handle into a RIFLE! And since it’s Nashville, we’d better stick a geetar and a banjee on there, too.” 

I’m 100 percent sure this spoon is haunted by whatever remains of my dignity.
