A woman visiting a bar in Texas noticed a cowboy seated casually with his boots resting on a nearby table. What immediately caught her attention was their size — they were the largest boots she had ever seen.
Curious, she struck up a conversation and jokingly asked whether the old saying about men with big feet held any truth. The cowboy responded with a confident grin, clearly amused by the question.
Intrigued, the woman decided to satisfy her curiosity and spent the night with him. The following morning, as she prepared to leave, she quietly placed $200 on the table.
The cowboy, visibly surprised, thanked her politely and admitted that no one had ever paid him before.
Her response was brief and direct: the money wasn’t payment — it was a suggestion. She advised him to use it to buy a pair of boots that actually fit.
