It's Spring! So...

What do you look for in a snag? Is a 49 really a good spot for snagging?

Jim, you lost me. On the Menominee Reservation, a 49 is a big party after the Pow-Wow. Are we on the same page?

The only snag I've ever heard of is something I get on my clothes once in a while. I don't think that's what you mean, though. LOL

Can you enlighten us?

[Jim Burnes]

Deputy Joe got it. A snag is the guy or girl you hook up with at the after-powwow party, which is a '49'.

See, powwows are always dry, and formal affairs. Certain things happen in a fixed manner. So when its over, about midnight, the younger crowd gathers with a drum or two (which can number to about 6 men each drum) and pull the brewskis and leftover food from the cars...and then the 49 will last until the beer is gone, or the sun rises.

Or your snag falls asleep

This concludes an officer.com sponsored inter-cultural briefing.

It's Saturday! and it's Springtime!
