During a visit to Buck Owens' enterprises in Bakersfield in 1976, the young women were engaged in the task of stuffing envelopes with promotional materials related to Buck Owens, while Mayf Nutter was present, idly observing during his own visit. I noticed the wristwatch he was wearing and initially assumed it to be a Mickey Mouse watch, a timepiece that had recently gained popularity due to its various cultural revivals.

"Mayf, is that a Mickey Mouse watch you're wearing? May I take a closer look?" I inquired.

He turned his wrist to allow me a better view. "Same thing," he replied. The young women responded in unison with an exclamation of surprise.

It turned out to be a Buck Owens wristwatch, a product I was aware of but with limited memory. Mayf found himself in a position to explain, not to me, but to the office staff. 

"They are both iconic figures in popular culture," Mayf began, speaking with confidence and assurance. "Each has a significant following and is recognized worldwide. There are numerous similarities between them..."

Mayf continued his explanation, and one can imagine the remainder of his remarks. His casual approach to addressing his misstatement in the House of Owens seemed to earn him a degree of forgiveness, in my estimation.
