Caption Contest: Rolls-Royce Phantom at Wal-Mart
We don't normally have caption contests around here, but when we saw this photo of a $350,000-ish Rolls-Royce Phantom parked in from of a Wal-Mart, well, we just had to do something. Like, say, run a caption contest. You would think that anyone able to afford something as (frankly) laughably priced as a Phantom would send the domestic servants out to schlep home pallets of toilet paper in the R63 AMG. But hey, times are tough so maybe they laid off the domestic servants. Or sold the R63 AMG. Anyhow, talk about culture clash.
And now, as we do, we'll start you off with a few not-so-funny, deprived under duress captions of our own, knowing full well that y'all can do much better.
Maybe if I park three spaces away from everyone else, I won't get any poor on me.
It's actually a Geely GE and on sale inside for $99.99.
Sam Walton's heirs pay a visit to the family business.
The filthy rich have a constitutional right to cheap Chinese crap, too.
Do you have any five pound tubs of Grey Poupon?
And there you have it - ha ha ha! Think you can do funnier? Show us below in the comments. The winner will receive 15 laps around a Walmart parking lot in a Rolls-Royce Phantom. Or not. Thanks to Matthew for the tip!

This story is almost better than the story where a guy & his son in a Bentley assaulted an angry lady during a dispute in the drive-thru of a Chic-Fil-A.
Apparently, the Bentley was blocking some of the traffic at the restaurant. A lady got out of her car to complain to the driver (face to face) of the Bentley. The driver got out and continued to argue and son got out too. During the altercation, the guy (or his son) knocked the lady down.

Jei, here's the story on the assault at the Chick-fil-A in tony Southlake:
http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/dn/latestnews/stories/081809dnmetbentley.3d86ebd.html
The guy driving the Bentley (from the Houston area) has a record, including drug possession and DWI, and threatened to shoot the woman's husband, after his two sons (15- and 20-year-olds) assaulted her.
Last year, Forbes magazine ranked Southlake the wealthiest city in the U.S. so it's not exactly hicktown:
