Tuscaloosa, AL -

"'It’s a trend I want to curtail,' said Wentz, relatively new to town, having moved here about three months ago... He’s originally from Pennsylvania...

'We didn’t even have this up north, even though we have snow and could actually use them,' he said. 'Just driving around campus here is unlike anything I’ve seen anywhere else.'

Sheepskin boots have been worn around the world for centuries, but the Uggs name is more recent. World War I aviators wore a sheepskin boot they called 'fugs.' 'Ugg' seems to have come from the Autralian slang 'ugh' for ugly. Surfers and skiiers popularized the boot as after-workout wear, to keep their feet warm. A representative for UGG Australia, one of the leading makers of the boots, declined to comment.

If his petition is successful - as of late last week, he had 23 signatures at his 94.1 site - Wentz wants to take it to Tuscaloosa Mayor Maddox and UA President Witt. Legislative action is not planned."



This is a great idea. Because I know women love to rip things off and burn them when they feel under attack (see bra burnings). If every college girl burns her Uggs in protest, then every college girl will automatically increase in hotness by at least 2 points. And if they rip off their skirts and burn them, 4 or 5 points. Unless she's fat and should have been wearing long pants in the first place, then -6 points.
