Default [Silly Holiday Stuff] Car Tree

My wife bought us a cheap fake tree and decorated it in an appropriate manner. All I had to do was bring in one of my ancient Gatorbacks from the garage.



For those who want more detail so they can make snarky comments about the ornaments here's a bigger shot.

You can't really complain about that. At least she didn't put ballerinas and $h!+ all over it - she put on cars, man, be happy! I like your enhancement as well.

The NASCAR ornaments were the most recent addition to this artistic work - I came home a couple of nights ago to see my wife Ivelis heading out to the store to secure them.

I was going to move this to Off Topic but upon closer inspection I see some C4 emblems and some C4's hanging from the tree. Now this thread can stay here as long as you don't take any Best Offers for the tire. Oh, one last thing, Merry Christmas. I like your tree.

I knew it was a bit iffy - don't forget that it's also a C4 tire...

Awesome!.. showed the pict to a buddy and he asked why I didn't have one like that as well.
Told him maybe next year with a sawblade base, assuming I get what I want this year!

That's a great tree! Gotta love the 20 ornament!

Congratulations Tony Stewart; 2005 Nextel Cup Champ!

I even like the seeing Kyle Petty's ride on the GB...but...

Gotta punt that 24 ornament! That one just screams "Bah Humbug" to me.

I think I'm the last person in the world who is happy if either 8, 20, or 24 win! There's also a 3 on the tree somewhere, but it keeps trying to knock the other ornaments off...
