I was at a BBQ yesterday and some poor ol' baw was getting ragged about his Yeti.

I was always partial to the Coleman metal ice chests, myself.

Are you guys still buying them?

If you don't have at least 5 Yeti products, you're not an OT baller...

Trashy. Rubbermaid makes an ice chest just as good for 30 bucks

I’ll never buy one myself, but if somebody wants to give me one as a gift I wouldn’t turn em down.

My wife and kids gave me a 20qt soft side Yeti cooler for father's day last year... I wish I could change it out for an Rtic...

They were always a status symbol to signify that if you bought one, you’re an idiot.

It seems like everyone who has a Yeti never bought it themselves.

Seeing that credit has been restored to the masses, I think it is more analagous to all the financed Nissans out there clogging the roads and just evidence that the nine-key janitors buying things they probably can not afford.

I don’t know, but a vendor gave me a “swamp box” which is every bit as nice as a Yeti. I wouldn’t pay for a Yeti or RTIC. No way I would need such an expensive chest.

Only Yeti product I own is a tumblr.

A vendor gave it to me.


My brother has four Yeti chests at his camp. He was given every one of them by his vendors.

Yeah, they’re very popular gifts in O&G.

Yep, I have two...

One was a gift, and the other was a give away...

White trash ruined Yeti. White trash was to Yeti what clutcha was to Tommy Hilfiger.

Not after their dustup with the NRA. I won’t buy anymore Yeti products.

No, just that they keep ice from melting as fast. They are actually very functional. Imagine that, buying something because it's actually a good product.
