Let's Talk GRAND ENTRYS - Page 2

I think men who have more than one wife should come in first, then women who have lots of lovers come in second. Followed by kids whos brothers and sisters have different daddies. Then white people should come in and thrash, then all the black guys sing the grand entry song with mexicans selling tacos nearby while us indians wait for our contest naked, but proud and not bashful. Then clowns should come in and clean up the mess communication only with whistles.

I asked my mom, and she doesn't remember powwows having grand entries when she was young in the late 50's in Oklahoma. She thinks she would have remembered having to stand that long!

Bing O,

Some people on pws.com take the words that are posted (even if they are sarcastic and facetious) as gospel.

Now look what you may have started!

You got it right on the head there Who Me.

The Grand Entry for the Native American Powwows was developed from the Grand Entry of the Wild West Shows and the Rodeos of the 19th Century.

It slowly became a part of the Native Powwow across the country in the 20th Century. This took a long time as you could find many events that did not use a Grand Entry as late as the early 1970's. But as time moved on the Grand Entry became almost fully mainstreamed by the late 1970's and early 1980's across both the United States and Canada.

There are many Elders that can easily remember no such thing as a Grand Entry.

Okay, okay, yes, once and only once, was I that late to a grand entry. The line was so long that I got there half dressed and was completely dressed by the time I went in. But no, I DID NOT have my number taken away!!!!!!!

Where do the fighting ex-girlfriends go? Should they be included with the multiple wives???

sltate · 04-18-2005, 01:41 PM

Yikes, it may be one of the longest grand entries ever, depending on what part of pow wow country you are in.LOL
Especially when the ex-girlfriends and wives have to find their place...what about 49 babes, do they count somewhere in this theoretical grand entry?

bigyellowbear49 · 04-18-2005, 04:28 PM

(what about 49 babes, do they count somewhere in this theoretical grand entry? )

Most 49 babes probably can't,count that is,cause if they are messin around at the nine with a married guy they ain't to bright anyway...............lol

Homalosa · 04-18-2005, 06:21 PM

I again am one who does not remember Pow Wow without Grand Entry. I was always running late, putting on my bells, making sure my roach feathers were secured and finishing my fry bread. With the occasional fix of the lion cloth.
