Sounds like a scene out of that movie "Oh Brother Where Art Thou?"

That's crazy.
Do the prisoners in your area still wear those striped duds? |

Quoted: Sounds like a scene out of that movie "Oh Brother Where Art Thou?" Kinda' what it looked like too. [:D] The local state "guests" wear orange jumpsuits. The county jail is 25 miles away and I really don't know what the prisoners there wear. |

We have those stripped inmate uniforms here in our county. The current Sheriff had them switch over to them for the work crews on the roads.
I have to say, they stand out much better than the orange ones. Won't be any doubts about who the bad guy is if run of them decides to take off and comes through my neighborhood. They look just like these! [img]http://images.allposters.com/images/RIC/2400-4352.jpg[/img] Edited to ad pic. They had a pic of them in our local paper when they first came out, but I can't find the link. It's been awhile. |

The local LEA issues the black/white striped jumpsuits to all in their care.
The main reason is that our City/County maxi is about three blocks from Neyland Stadium (110k capacity) where the University of Tennessee Volunteers play their home ball. Their colors? Orange and white. Yep. It would be kinda hard for someone to spot an inmate during an escape on the random Saturday in the Fall. They also issue them to the minimum threat inmates at that detention area which is about 20 miles out in the middle of nowhere. Why? Well you don't understand the civic pride these people have for their Volunteers. Orange all day, every day. It's almost a law. |

I've seen orange and white stripes.
I also saw a kid at the mall with a fake inmate shirt. I must be getting old, I didn't know dressing like an inmate was cool. It did throw me for a minute, fortunately I decided to not sit on the guy and wait for the police. |

Quoted: Unless the cops were beating the cuffed guy they are a bunch of fricking slackers. Everybody was pretty calm about it. The dude just stood there with one or two cops cuffing him and the sargent was standing back a few steps, probably ready to slap leather. None of the big city shenanigans, or is that shillelaghs?

Here in GA they issue them white with a blue or orange stripe down the legs and these stupid
looking "crusher" style caps. Looks straight out of the '50s! |

Found out this morning all local agencies issue the orange jumpsuits.
This is getting real curious now. |

Yup, I can't remember who makes them or what their called but there is a shirt some guys here in So Cal like to wear that the inmates wear. Something bear or brown or something... |

When I spent a week in Jail (long story) I wore the black and white stripes, everything (and I do mean everything) was made by Bob Barker company. Yes this is the same one who is on "The Price Is Right", turns out he makes money on the side be selling toiletries/clothing/stuff to County Jails and Prisons.
BTW, is that the "Fonz" on the left??? |
