Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for December 22, 2017

Didn’t know a hoop skirt had another name: crinoline.

A game and day which will live in infamy for all fans of the Baltimore Orioles. :-(

Death by fashion? I can believe that. In the 1970’s, there were flammable pajamas.

Weren’t all clothes extremely flammable in those days?

it would be nice to have neighbors that don’t complain when you play music or turn up the tv.

Texas scored 30 runs. Did they win?

What song was it about a little girl that had the line,"her crinolines were billowin’ "?

Not the ones made with asbestos.

Did Ernie write the ad for the house?

All clothing was flammable back then!

I have to wonder why so many women put up with certain fashion trends. Did men threaten to beat them up if they didn’t?

That would be a nice place to live, and if it is haunted so much the better and low cost!

True all clothes were flammable then, but the heavy starch in the hoop skirts made them more so
