In a similar way I've always waited for the day when someone in RL draws the connection between the two little cowboy hat pendants I wear and BBM (and of course reveals themselves as a Brokie ;D). I've gotten lots and lots of looks at my necklace over the years. But never once did someone make the connection, or just asked me about them.
A few comments like 'they're cute' or 'nice hats', but that was it. And as the years go by and the movie is not in the general memory anymore, the chances tend toward zero.

They probably just think, oh, she's been to the U.S. a few times, and most people over there wear cowboy hats, right? So that's her souvenir. :laugh:
It would be like someone from here going to Germany and bringing back lederhosen. Or at least a little lederhosen necklace. :laugh:

Awww, but shouldn't it be two lederhosen, one inside the other, like two skins? 8)
