This is a terrible description. Most of that shite is just country. You're missing the point and have no idea what you're talking about.

I've driven my side by side to work the last few days. That's 25 miles of interstates and 15 of surface streets.

Then again, I'm about as country as gravy on a biscuit.

Most wear baseball (or actually trucker style) caps. With that, you have an option. Either flatbill it, or curve the crap out of the bill, so it looks more like a beak! And pull it down all the way to your eyes.

What happened to having a fish hook on the bill of your cap? Usually see it on old, really beat up caps. Is that not a thing anymore? Seems like the bro country baws would be into that.

The difference is that these people grew up in the suburbs and did not live the lifestyle they sing about. They don't fish, have never gone hunting, they probably don't even cut their own grass let alone farm. They're just straight up pandering to conform to some stereotype they think their audience wants to hear about so they can sell them shite like Chevys, yeti coolers, jack Daniels and Fireball whiskeys, and levi jeans.

If they weren't so completely detached from rural reality they'd realize that new pickup trucks haven't had bench seats in over 20 years, so no, she can't just "slide on over".

Real country music is 4 chords and the truth. Bro country is 4 chords and some contrived corporate market research tested bullshite.

Jeans made to look worn out

Other clothes made to look like you're not trying too hard, but are obviously picked by a stylist.

Tons of leather bracelets...........tons. Belt width with buttons, braided bracelets..........bracelets, bracelets, bracelets.

Oh yeah, a couple shitty tats

I wore bracelets 12 years ago in college.

It was a look I was going for. Preppy douche blended with goth...with a smattering of country thrown in.

The Tim Tebow dream at the Heisman house commercial is a funny representation of the bro culture.

You need to acquire: 1. Pickup truck with a tailgate that can be lowered. 2. Ownership of or access to a dirt road, over which you may drive said pickup. 3. Some sort of ice chest or cooler, in which to chill beers. 4. A working radio, out of which you may play your favorite song(s). 5. Blue jeans, preferably faded and torn. 6. (optional, but recommended) - A fire pit or equivalent place to burn wood recreationally, dance around all night, etc. 7. A country girl who really enjoys 1 - 6.


this is the furthest thing from bro country. This to me is a good time. I'd take this any day.

And then those of us who are actually country, grew up on a farm, etc are likely lumped into the "bro country crowd" by the masses



thanks bro country

Huntin, fishin, prayin, cold beer, trucks, small towns and dirt roads.

Dirt roads might be the most important component.
