At first glance Carline Felts didn't think anything about a flyer that was left on her door, but after a closer look she says she's offended. "That's not acceptable!" she said sternly. "I haven't seen White Trash around here."
The "White Trash Party" was to be hosted by the Zen Restaurant and Bar in the Austin Ranch apartment community in The Colony, just off of the North Dallas Tollway.
On one side of the flyer there's a scantily clad woman and a picture of Britney Spears on the bottom. The other side of the flyer has a shot of a trailer park.
The ad urges everyone planning to attend to 'dress the part'. "They wouldn't have a Hitler party or a come get ghetto with us [party]," Felts said in objection of the event.
But not everyone is against the party. Steve Birge and his girlfriend Stacey Lamp wouldn't dream of missing the party on Sunday. "Oh come on its outrageous! I love it," said Birge, who lives at Austin Ranch. "I'm going over there and dress the part; with the fake mullet and everything." Lamp says she'll be wearing her 'Daisy Dukes' and a cut off white tank top.
The "White Trash Party" is supposed to be a fundraiser for a girls softball team. The team, 99 TX MX Blue, is trying to go to Florida for the National Championships and needs at least $12,000 to make the trip happen.
"Not to offend anyone, we felt like white trash running around trying to get all the money," explained James Wilson, a parent of one of the softball players. "All the girls on the team are 'redneck' girls and we were laughing."

Hmmmm....I guess they wouldn’t have been too thrilled about our “White Trash Hoedowns.”
Why not throw a party mocking communist Ivy League liberal bigots?
But Rick isn’t mocking people, he walks the walk and lives the life.
